Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Landvetter (GOT) to Kastrup (CPH)?

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Gothenborg to Copenhagen.

Notable sights include: Øresund Strait (the water crossing between Sweden and Denmark), Malmö skyline (visible on the Swedish side to the north), Øresund Bridge (the rail/road bridge connecting Sweden and Denmark, visible as a thin line across the water), Copenhagen's northern suburbs and Amager Island (appearing as urban grid on the Danish side).

What does the Gothenborg to Copenhagen flight path pass over?

The flight path crosses the Swedish east coast near Varberg and Falkenberg, then proceeds over the Kattegat (the sea between Sweden and Denmark). The Kattegat is relatively featureless from altitude but marks the transition zone. As you approach Denmark, you'll see the Danish coast and small islands (including parts of the Danish archipelago) before the final descent into the Øresund region. The entire route is over relatively low-lying terrain with no significant mountain ranges visible.
