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.

Where is the mass of an atom found

Virty [35]

Answer:

The mass of an atom is found in its nucleus.

Explanation:

An atom is made of three different particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.

Protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge) each have a mass of 1 AMU. They are both found in the nucleus (centre) of the atom.

Electrons (negative charge) are considered to have a mass of 0. Their mass is not actually 0, but very close so we do not count them. They are not in the nucleus, but found in shells surrounding the atom.

To calculate the mass of an atom, we add the number of protons and the number of electrons.

m = P + N

Write a balanced equation formed when the following elements react with oxygen:a)Zinc

Ainat [17]

Explanation:

a) when zinc burnt in oxygen.

2Zn + O2 -----∆-----> 2ZnO(black residue)

b) when carbon burnt in oxygen.

C+O2----∆---> CO2.

c) when sulphur burnt in oxygen.

S+O2-----∆-----> SO2.

d) when Calcium burnt in oxygen.

2Ca+O2-----∆-----> 2CaO(black residue)

e) when Magnesium burnt in oxygen.

2Mg+O2-----∆----> 2MgO.

f) when sodium burnt in oxygen.

4Na+O2----∆-----> 2Na2O.

hope all these reactions help you.
