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.
