James Chadwick shot alpha particles at a Beryllium target. Only the neutrons went through, not the protons. This allowed Chadwick to observe particles with no charge and find their mass. Thus, Chadwick discovered neutrons, and added them to Rutherford's model of the atom.

Ernest Rutherford was the first scientist to propose that protons reside in the nucleus of an atom, based on his gold foil experiment in 1911. Neutrons were later discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.
Ernest Rutherford is credited with discovering the nucleus of an atom in 1911 through his famous gold foil experiment. He observed that most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in a small, dense region that he called the nucleus.
A controlled experiment.

Chadwick's experiment on the deflection of alpha particles by a thin sheet of beryllium led to the discovery of the neutron, as the neutral particle responsible for this deflection. Based on his results, Chadwick proposed that the atom had a neutral particle in its nucleus, now known as the neutron, which explained the missing mass in atoms. This led to the development of the neutron theory of the atomic nucleus.
No, Ernest Rutherford's student James Chadwick wondered where all of this extra mass came from so in a experiment he discovered the neutrons.

neutrons were discovered by james chadwick by an experiment which was started by madam curie. protons were discovered by rutherford in his alpha ray scattering experiment
The neutron was discovered by Sir James Chadwick in 1932. Chadwick conducted experiments that provided evidence for the existence of a neutral subatomic particle within the atomic nucleus, which he named the neutron.
That wasn't even an answer! The answer to the question is this: Chadwick concluded that the particles produced by his experiment were neutral in charge because a charged object did not deflect their path.
It is called an experiment.
No, Henry Chadwick is not related to Charles Chadwick
Chadwick's experiment led to the discovery of the neutron, which is a subatomic particle with no charge located in the nucleus of an atom. This discovery helped to further our understanding of atomic structure and the composition of matter.
