Question:

Investigators studying the mass transfer from single spheres recommended the generalized equation 

Sh = 2.0 + C RemSc1/3 

As discussed in Section 30.1, the value of 2.0 can be derived theoretically by considering the molecular diffusion from a sphere into a large volume of stagnant fluid. Prove this is the correct value, and state what assumptions must be made to obtain it.
