"e.g." is the abbreviation for the Latin "exempli gratia", which roughly means "for example",

and that's what we use "e.g." to mean when we're writing.

The 'g' is the initial for the word "gratia", which is a big part of the reason it's used for that word.

Using eg in a sentence?

The term "e. g. " is short for "example given" and in sentences is generally used in place of "for example," and is usually only found in written sentences as it is rarely used in verbal speech. An example of a sentence using the term "e. g. " is "In the first 2 years of college you must take some mandatory core classes, e. g. English, Math, Social Sciences, etc. "


How do you find the lethal dose in moles not kg of ethylene glycol?

The EPA reports that 120cc is the lethal dose. Regular EG (C2H6O2) has a density of 1.115 g/cc @ 20 deg C (68 deg F) and 1.085 g/cc @ 60 deg C (140 deg F). Thus at room temp, 133.8 g of liquid EG is lethal. The molecular weight is 62.07 g/g-mol. So, to answer your question, 2.156 g-mole of pure, liquid EG at room temperature is lethal.
