Hello Student
79 35Br and 79Br are acceptable way of representation whereas 35 79Br and 35Br are not acceptable because there is a rule in IUPAC nomenclature to write the higher number(mass number) on top and the lower number (atomic number ) at the bottom. This type of expressing the elements is very useful in writing radioactive disintegration reactions where neutrons are emitted.
