This image depicts a nuclear reaction equation. It involves a neutron (n), an oxygen-16 nucleus, and a deuterium nucleus:

- The neutron (n) is the incoming particle.
- The oxygen nucleus is represented as \( \frac{16}{8} \text{O} \), indicating it has an atomic number of 8 and a mass number of 16.
- The reaction produces an unknown product (denoted by ?), which is what needs to be determined, and a deuterium nucleus (\( \frac{2}{1} \text{H} \)), which has an atomic number of 1 and a mass number of 2.

The equation for this nuclear reaction is:

\[ n + \frac{16}{8} \text{O} \rightarrow \, ? + \frac{2}{1} \text{H} \]

To solve for the unknown product, conservation of atomic and mass numbers must be used.
