Best Answer

He bombarded the alpha rays (coming out from a natural radioactive material) onBeryllium atom and observed that Beryllium artificially became radioactive for a short time it emitted material rays containing neutral particles having mass almost equal to proton he proposed the name Neutron for the newly discovered particle, he also observed that after short radioactivity Beryllium was converted in to Carbon,

3Be9 + 2He4 = 6C12 +0n1(neutron)

"...in 1932 the physicist James Chadwick in England performed a series of experiments showing that the gamma ray hypothesis was untenable. He suggested that in fact the new radiation consisted of uncharged particles of approximately the mass of the proton, and he performed a series of experiments verifying his suggestion. Such uncharged particles were eventually called neutrons...." ESE LE HOLMES GUTIERREZ GONZALEZ GOMEZ RAMIREZ GODINEZ ANGEL DEVIL ELOUISE RUEFANYO HAKEEM!!!

The neutron was discovered in 1932, when James Chadwick used scattering data to calculate the mass of the neutral particle. He was studying radioactivity at the time with Ernest Rutherford.
