During the chemistry of Border Star Montessori High School, her 10-year-old Clara Lazen (living in Kansas City, Missouri, USA) discovered a model of molecular structure thought to be highly applicable. if successfully synthesized.

Clara Lazen and the molecular structure she discovered

Like every day, Mr. Kenneth Boehr began his lecture on the periodic table of chemical elements, along with a model of molecular structure. After hours of practice, Clara Lazen told him about a molecular model she coined by oxygen, nitrogen and carbon atoms, and asked if this was a true chemical structure. Mr. Boehr could not help but be confused by the question of the student. So, he took a photo and sent a photo to his close friend Robert Zoellner, professor of Humbolt State University.

Talking about her discovery, Clara said: 'I think this way of making the link is solid, fit and more beautiful.'

After completing analysis on the computer, Professor Zoellner said: 'This tightly linked molecular structure allows stable energy storage, so it means that it can be used to produce storage objects. energy like batteries or even explosives'.
