The discovery of the electron resulted from experiments using what?

There were no technologies. The atom was discovered by the ancient Greek's. They figured that eventually if you kept on dividing something, it would get so small that you wouldn't be able to divide it anymore. There would be just one tiny particle left. They called this particle the atom. Of course over time the atom proved not to be the smallest particle with the discovery of the proton, electron and neutron.


Why could the neutron not be discovered in same experiments as the electron and proton?

Early experiments were based off attraction. The neutron had no charge to attract or repel or to be attracted or repelled. so these experiments could not figure out that there was a neutral particle in the nucleus.

What is a neutron give it uses?

Neutron is an elementary particle, with a mass of approx. 1 amu; neutron is neutral. Neutrons are components of the atomic nucleus; neutrons contain quarks and gluons. Some applications: - neutron radiography - neutron diffraction - neutrons are involved in many important nuclear reactions as reactants or products - the nuclear fission is a problem of neutrons (nuclear reactors, nuclear weapons) - neutron activation analysis - neutron probes for water - experiments in nuclear physics
