Nitrous oxide is N2O   Molecular weight is 14(2) + 16  = 44 gm/mole

STP = Standard Temp and Pressure     0 degrees C   and one atm pressure

One mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters of space at STP

 

1kg of N2O   is   1000/44 moles  =   22.727 moles

22.727 moles x 22.4 l / mole =  509 liters          A cubic meter is 1000 liters      509/1000= .509 m^3   for 1 kg N20 @ STP     (about a half of a cubic meter)
