Inevitable manufacturing imperfections in optical fiber leads to birefringence, which is one cause of pulse broadening in fiber-optic communications. Such imperfections can be geometrical (lack of circular symmetry), due to stress applied to the optical fiber and/or due to bending of the fiber.

Explanation:
To delineate the the nature of the bonds that would be formed between the two elements, let us first write the electronic configuration of the two species;
Be = 2, 2
F = 2, 7
Beryllium is a metal with two valence electrons whereas fluorine is a halogen with seven valence electrons.
When Be loses two electrons it becomes isoelectronic with He;
Be → Be²⁺ + 2e⁻
Also, when fluorine gains an electron, it becomes isoelectronic with Ne;
F + e⁻ → F⁻
This loss and gain of electrons between the two elements creates an electrostatic attraction them and they enter into an electrovalent bond.
Hence;
Be²⁺ + 2F⁻ → BeF₂
Answer:
2.74 M
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of sodium chloride = 80.0 g
Volume of water = 500.0 mL
Molarity of solution = ?
Solution:
Molarity is used to describe the concentration of solution. It tells how many moles are dissolve in per litter of solution.
Formula:
Molarity = number of moles of solute / L of solution
Now we will convert the mL into L.
500.0 mL× 1 L /1000 mL = 0.5 L
In next step we will calculate the number of moles of sodium chloride.
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 80.0 g/ 58.4 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.37 mol
Molarity:
M = 1.37 mol/ 0.5 L
M = 2.74 M
