TUTORIAL 1
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO UNIT PROCESS

1. A typical Proton car dealer in Britain sells on average 15 Satria Neo cars a month.
There are currently three registered Proton car dealer in Britain. The current exchange
rate is 4.92 Ringgit Malaysia (RM) per Pound Sterling (£). If a Satria Neo car is sold
at £ 8495, calculate the value of Satria Neo cars being sold a year in Britain in Ringgit
Malaysia.

a) The molar composition of the mixture
b) Average molecular weight

10. Explain the difference between weight and mass.

11. Define the following terms and give one example for each term.
