Find chandrasekhar limit in context of white dwarfs


What is the Chandrasekhar limit in the context of white dwarfs and neutron stars? Give a brief explanation of the result if the mass of the core of a star exceeds the Chandrasekhar limit. Is it possible that one could find a black hole or a neutron star of one (1) solar mass? Is it possible that one could find a black hole or a neutron star of ten (10) solar masses? What happens if you keep adding mass to a white dwarf (be careful here, the answer is not obvious from the context of this question)?

What happens if you keep adding mass to a neutron star?
