You should get identical plots. I think rule 1 and rule 3 are equivalent.

Hello!

Could you please help me to understand solution as well? I just plotted
these
functions so that I combined sigma and epsilon values using rule 3

sigma(ij)=(sigma(i)*sigma(j))^(1/2)
epsilon(ij)=(epsilon(i)*epsilon(j))^(1/2)

and corresponding C6 (4*epsilon*sigma^6) and C12 (4*epsilon*sigma^12)
values
using rule 1

C6(ij)=(C6(i)*C6(j))^(1/2)
C12(ij)=(C12(i)*C12(j))^(1/2)

and got identical plots. What I have missed?
