Question:

The Stokes–Einstein equation is often used to estimate the molecular diameter of large spherical molecules from the molecular diffusion coefficient. The measured molecular diffusion coefficient of the serum albumin (an important blood protein) in water at infinite dilution is 5.94 10–7 cm2/s at 293 K. Estimate the mean diameter of a serum albumin molecule. The known value is 7.22 nm.
