The type of nuclear decay in which Oxygen decays to form nitrogen is beta plus decay.

<h3>What is a beta plus decay?</h3>

A beta plus decay is a type of decay in which a proton in an element disintegrates to produce a neutron resulting in a decrease in the atomic number of the radioactive element.

In the given equation below:

$^{15}_{7}O \rightarrow ^{15}_{7}N + ^{0}_{1}e$

Oxygen decays to form nitrogen due to a decrease in atomic number.

This is an example of beta plus decay.

In conclusion, oxygen decays to form nitrogen beta plus decay.

What type of intermolecular forces are expected between 4-methylcyclohexanone molecules?

Keith_Richards [23]

The answer is dipole-dipole and dipole-induced dipole forces.

The dipole-induced dipole is a kind of interaction induced by a polar molecule by disturbing the arrangement of electrons.

In methyl cyclohexanone molecules, there is a permanent dipole moment due to dipole moment vectors not canceling.
There is induction of dipole by disturbing the electronic arrangement.
A permanent dipole moment is created in this interaction.
Dipole-dipole interactions are defined as the forces that is formed from the close linkage of permanent or induced dipoles.
These forces are called Van der Waal forces.
Proteins contain a large number of these interactions, which vary considerably in strength.
