If the toxic quantity is 1.5 gg of ethylene glycol per 1000 gg of body mass, what percentage of ethylene glycol is fatal

Respuesta :

Answer:

The percentage of ethylene glycol that is fatal is 0.15 %

Explanation:

If the toxic quantity of ethylene glycol in a 1kg or 1000 g body weight is 1.5 g then the percentage of ethylene glycol that is fatal is

[tex]\frac{1.5}{1000}[/tex] ˣ 100 = 0.15%

Hence, the percentage of ethylene glycol that is toxic for any body weight is 0.15%. This percentage is very important in various aspects of science including drug discovery and food production/processing
