Answer:

The isotope notation for terbium-165 =
_(65)^(165)\textrm{X}

Step-by-step explanation:

The isotopic representation of an atom is:
_Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z = Atomic number of the atom

A = Mass number of the atom

X = Symbol of the atom

We have, isotope terbium-165

65 = Atomic number of the terbium atom

165 = Mass number of the terbium atom

Tb = Symbol of the terbium atom

The isotope notation for terbium-165 =
_(65)^(165)\textrm{X}
