QUESTION 5 The following questions must be answered in the given text box of each question. Please read your question carefully, and look at the mark allocation of each question. The “Mad Scientist” discovers atomic codes in the escape room. He looks specifically at the material iron because the escape room’s door is made of iron and a way must be found to break through the solid iron. Iron contains 26 Protons, 30 Neutrons and 27 Electrons.
