The analysis is based upon theoretical calculations of the properties of the monatomic systems, described in the preceding parts I and I.A of the present paper, and making use of the kinetic theory of a binary gas reacting mixture. A summary of the measurement techniques used, including, whenever possible, the magnitude of the corrections performed on the raw data and the nominal precision of the results, complements the analysis. It is concluded that it is possible to select precise and mutually consistent sets of experimental results for both viscosity and thermal conductivity coefficients of lithium, sodium and potassium vapours among the available literature data and to classify all the data in uncertainty classes. Regarding rubidium and cesium no systematic discussion is possible due to a lack of experimental data with sufficient precision.engAlkali Metal VapoursDimerizationHeat ConductionTransport PropertiesViscosityjournal article2012-01-20
