The helium atom was defined as two electrons and a single nucleus, and the hydrogen molecule ion was defined as a single electron and two nuclei. It seems that the only difference is an exchange in the identity of the particles in the system; however, their quantum mechanical treatment is completely different, as are the results. Explain why.

It has been suggested that spacecraft could be powered by the pressure exerted by sunlight striking a sail. The force exerted on a surface is the momentum p transferred to the surface per second. Assume that photons of 6000 Å light strike the sail perpendicularly. How many must be reflected per second by 1cm2 of surface to produce a pressure of 106 atm?
