Nuclear fission reactions can produce different radioisotopes. One of these radioisotopes

is Te-137, which has a half-life of 2.5 seconds. The diagram below represents one of
the many nuclear fission reactions.

Complete the nuclear equation in your answer booklet for the beta decay of Zr-97, by
writing an isotopic notation for the missing product.
