Abstract
We present an analytical equation of stale for soft reference system s uch is liquid alkali metals Thermodynamic properties-Excess entropy an d diffusion coefficient have been calculated for liquid alkali metals using this equation of state. The calculated values of the self diffus ion constant are compared with those corresponding to a hard-sphere fl uid which shows that the softness plays a significant role in reducing diffusion.
