let me rewrite the equation 235 92U+10n→AZSr+14354Xe+310n
the mass and charge must be balanced
for the masses 235 + 1 → A + 143 +
3
236 → A + 147
A → 236-147 → 89
the nuclear charge is therefore
92 → z +54
z → 92-54→ 38
therefore
the atomic number correspond to strontium and the isotope is strontium-89
