Nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, nitrous, nitro, or NOS is a chemical compound with the formula N 2O. It is an oxide of nitrogen. At room temperature, it is a colourless, non-flammable gas, with a slightly sweet odour and taste.It is used in surgery and dentistry for its anaesthetic and analgesic effects.itrous oxide gives rise to nitric oxide (NO) on reaction with oxygen atoms, and this NO in turn reacts with ozone.
Hence, the âlaughing gasâ used now is called N2O-O2, and contains at least 30% oxygen (thatâs all the machines used nowadays will permit). Usually, the mix is about 70% oxygen to 30% nitrous oxide. In medicine, sometimes a mix of 50% oxygen to 50% nitrous oxide is used.This is known as entonox or, more commonly, âgas and airâ. Depending on the concentration and length of administration of laughing gas, four levels of sedation can be experienced (after an initial feeling of light-headedness):ounds like fun!!
