LAUGHING GAS [ˈlafiNG ˌɡas]
NOUN
laughing gas (noun)
Laughing gas, scientifically known as nitrous oxide (N2O), is a simple gas that is odorless and non-flammable at room temperature. It is called laughing gas due to the euphoria it produces when people inhale it.
Nitrous Oxide is known as laughing gas because it simply alters the chemical in your brain that makes you laugh. Euphoria is a common side effect of N2O usage, hence the name laughing gas. This is as part of wider emotional changes that can occur when nitrous oxide is being administered.
On a more negative note, though, laughing gas has some very dangerous side effects. After using nitrous oxide, it’s not uncommon to experience a complete loss of motor functions. This can be extremely dangerous, and even deadly. Loss of inhibitions is also likely and can lead to reckless behavior.
Nitrous oxide got the name "laughing gas" because inhaling it produces euphoria. English chemist Joseph Priestley first synthesized nitrous oxide in 1772 by collecting the gas produced from sprinkling nitric acid over iron filings.
