  • B treating $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2$ with $\mathrm{NaNO}_2$
  • C treating $\mathrm{Mg}_3 \mathrm{~N}_2$ with $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
  • D heating $\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_3$

The correct answer is: heating $\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_2$
$\left(\mathrm{NH}_4\right)_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7$ and $\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_2$ both on heating liberate nitrogen gas. The reaction involve are as follows
$$
\begin{gathered}
\left(\mathrm{NH}_4\right)_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7 \stackrel{\Delta \cdot}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{N}_2 \uparrow+\mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_3+4 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} . \\
\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_3 \longrightarrow \mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O}+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}
\end{gathered}
$$
