$\rho=\frac{a}{(4 / 3) \pi R^{3}}$

$\therefore q=\frac{4}{3} \pi \rho R^{3}$

$V_{C}+V_{S}=\frac{3}{2}\left(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot \frac{q}{R}\right)-\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \cdot \frac{q}{R}$

$=\frac{q}{8 \pi \varepsilon_{0} R}$

Substituting the value of $q$ we have

$V_{C}-V_{S}=\frac{\rho R^{3}}{6 \varepsilon_{0}}$
