Question

Nitrous oxide $\left(N_{2}O\right)$ can be formed by the decomposition of

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D. All of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Nitrous oxide $\left(N_{2}O\right)$ can be formed by the carefully controlled thermal decomposition of $N{H}_{4}N{O}_3$
$N{H}_{4}N{O}_3\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }2H_{2}O+N_{2}O$

The above reaction has to be carried out carefully as $N{H}_{4}N{O}_3$ can explode.
