Abstract
Analytical equation of state for pure alkali metals (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium and cesium) in equilibrium gas phase is proposed. This equation has a simple form, generalizes the equation of state for a perfect gas and is universal for all alkali elements. It correctly reproduces the experimental data for the equilibrium gas phase over a wide range of pressures (up to ~Pa) and temperatures (up to ~K). On the basis of this equation of state, expressions for thermal and caloric coefficients as well as for \textit{other physical characteristics} are obtained. The results of this study confirm feasibility of the principle of corresponding states in relation to the group of alkali elements.
