Only a mean value can be given for oxidation values in N2O: N +1 , O -2
Valency can only be picturised.

What is the compound name for 1 nitrogen and 1 oxygen?
Nitrous Oxide or Laughing gas.
How many elements does nitrous oxide contain?
nitrous oxide, or N2O contains two elements, Nitrogen and Oxygen
How do you mix nitrogen with oxygen to form nitrous oxide?
nitrous oxide is manufactured by heating ammonia nitrate which decomposes into N2O and water vapor
How many bonds does nitrogen have to form with oxygen to create nitrous oxide?
It is very difficult to describe the bonding in nitrous oxide using a simple valency model. It consists of two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. You can say that each nitrogen atom has a double bond with the other nitrogen atom, and one of the nitrogen atoms has a double bond with the oxygen atom, but that requires putting charges on some of the atoms. You need to invoke the ideas of delocalization or resonance if you wish to describe it accurately.
What is the medical code for nitrous oxide?
Nitrogen is N, and since the Oxygen bit is in oxide, it's O2. NO2
Why is nitrous oxide called nitrous oxide?
Because here nitrogen has a lower valency of 1
