Nitrous oxide (also known as laughing gas, nitrous oxide, or nos) is a chemical substance that is an oxide of nitrogen with the formula N2O. With a little metallic scent and taste when exposed to room temperature, it is an inert, colorless, non-flammable gas. The potent oxidiser nitrous oxide has a similar effect to molecular oxygen when exposed to high temperatures.
Nitrous oxide has numerous medicinal applications, particularly in surgery and dentistry, where its anesthetic and pain-relieving properties are particularly useful. The term “laughing gas,” created by Humphry Davy, refers to the euphoric feelings that can be experienced after inhaling the gas, a trait that has led to its recreational use as a dissociative anesthetic in the past. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it is on the list of essential medicines. Aside from that, it is utilized as an oxidizer in rocket propellants as well as in motor racing to boost the power output of engine pistons.
