Earlier, potentials like square well and several other half-potential wells with discontinuous jump have been found to have the expectation value $<\! p^6 \!>$ to be divergent for all bound states. Here, we consider two-piece symmetric potential wells to prove and demonstrate that in them the expectation value of $p^6$ diverges for even states and converges for odd states. Here, $p$ denotes momentum. We also present three exactly solvable models.
