Chadwick's theory, which proposed the existence of the neutron to explain Atomic Mass discrepancies, faced challenges regarding its implications for atomic structure and stability. While it successfully identified neutrons as neutral particles within the nucleus, it did not fully account for the forces at play in atomic nuclei, leading to questions about nuclear stability and the behavior of isotopes. Additionally, later developments in quantum mechanics and particle physics revealed more complexities in nuclear interactions that Chadwick's initial model did not address.
