The kinetic theory of dilute monatomic gases and mixtures was used to calculate some transport properties of dissociated hydrogen. The H/sub 2/-H/sub 2/ and H-H/sub 2/ interactions were assumed to obey the modified Buckingham (exp- 6) potentia1 and the Lennard-Jones (12-6) potential, respectively, and the two H- H interaction potentials (/sup 1/ SIGMA /sub 2/ and /sup 3/ SIGMA /sub u/ were treated by the method of Hirschfe1der and E1iason to obtain a weighted average rigid-sphere co11ision diameter. The coefficient of viscosity, the coefficient of diffusion in a binary- mixture of the H-H/sub 2/ system, and the coefficients of self-diffusion for H atoms and H/sub 2/ molecules were computed for temperatures from 1500 to 5000 deg K and pressures of 0.1,
