उत्तर
The action of heat on ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) can be represented by the following equation:
\[\ce{NH4NO3 <=> N2O + 2H2O}\]
This reaction is an example of thermal decomposition, which occurs when a chemical is broken down into simpler compounds using heat. Ammonium nitrate decomposes into nitrogen oxide (N2O) and water (H2O).
