Solution:

(A) Laughing Gas Nitrous oxide.
As this gas sometimes generates a feeling of euphoria due to which a person wants to laugh after smelling it.
(B) Anhydride of anhydride means a compound obtained after water has been removed from other compounds.
From can't be removed so, if we take
(nitrogen penta-oxide)
(C) Anhydride of
Similarly as above if we take
(Phosphorus Pentaoxide)
(D) Acid Anhydride of nitrogen.
Acid Anhydride is formed by the combination of two acid structures with an ion of a water molecule.
Hydrazine reacts with nitrous acid giving acid anhydride of nitrogen, i.e, hydrazoic acid with loss of 2 molecules of water.
