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.

The ccl4 formed in the first step is used as a reactant in the second step. if 2.00 mol of ch4 reacts, what is the total amount

Leni [432]

<span>CH4 + 4 Cl2 â†’ CCl4 + 4 HCl (4.00 mol CH4) x (1/1) x (0.70) = 2.80 mol CCl4 (4.00 mol CH4) x (4/1) x (0.70) = 11.2 mol HCl CCl4 + 2 HF â†’ CCl2F2 + 2 HCl (2.80 mol CCl4) x (2/1) x (0.70) = 3.92 mol HCl 11.2 mol + 3.92 mol = 15.1 mol HCl from both steps</span>
