The balanced chemical equation is: 2Pb(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 2PbO+4NO_2+O_2

Explanation:

Chemical formula of the given compound which is lead nitrate is Pb(NO_3)_2

On heating the compounds undergo decomposition and leads to formation of  two or more products.

When lead nitrate which is white in colour  is heated, it decomposes into its oxide, a brown gas and also a colorless gas is also formed. The chemical equation for the dissociation of lead nitrate follows:

2Pb(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 2PbO+4NO_2+O_2

Thus the colored gas X is NO_2
