The correct answer is:
$\mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O}$
By thermal decomposition of ammonium nitrate, nitrous acid (laughing gas) is obtained.
$\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_3 \underset{250^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}{\stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow}} \mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O}+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
$\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_3 \underset{250^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}{\stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow}} \mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O}+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
