Tony stark is trying to make new element, and smashes together an atom of carbon-12 and an atom of iron-54 (remember: the number after an element name is that atom’s mass number). In the process, he makes one new atom combining the protons, neutrons, and electrons of the carbon-12 and iron-54 atoms. What element did he actually make?

Tony stark is trying to make new element, and smashes together an atom of carbon-12 and an atom of iron-54 (remember: the number after an element name is that atom’s mass number). In the process, he makes one new atom combining the protons, neutrons, and electrons of the carbon-12 and iron-54 atoms. What element did he actually make? Assume the atom is neutral and write its symbol in standard atomic notation. Show your work.
