Yes
Antifreeze usually contains ethylene glycol (OHCH2CH2OH).
No it is an organic compound since it contains carbon.
Propylene Glycol: it contains three Carbons, eight Hydrogens, and two Oxygens.
The original mixture contains 41.4 ounces of glycol. for this to be 30 percent of the mixture, the total mixture must be 138 ounces, so 46 ounces of water must be added.
Definitely. Two years ago, I took Caltrate which contains polyethylene glycol. There was no effect the first day I took it, but I was extremely dizzy, had terrible headaches, and experienced stiffness in my left hip and shoulder on the second day. I now try to avoid all glycols. I know I am extremely allergic to propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol and butylene glycol. Good Luck trying to avoid these harmful chemicals.
No. Polyethylene glycol has an extremely low toxicity compared to either of the others.
no, but polyethylene glycol is.

No, not usually. The only way that glycol can contain a corn product is if it is corn glycol. And corn glycol is rarely sold.
No soft drink contains ethylene glycol in any amount. Ethylene glycol, which is indeed used in antifreeze, is toxic. What they may (or may not) contain is propylene glycol, also used as antifreeze, but according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC): "The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified propylene glycol as an additive that is 'generally recognized as safe' for use in food. It is used to absorb extra water and maintain moisture in certain medicines, cosmetics, or food products. It is a solvent for food colors and flavors." (See Ethylene Glycol and Propylene Glycol.) The confusion between these two chemicals is understandable, I guess, since they both contain the word "glycol" and are used in antifreeze. Conspiracy theorists like to think that evil corporations want to poison their customers whenever possible. Don't worry, unless it's a slow death occurring after a lifetime of use and the product is addictive (cough, cough), corporations generally prefer not to kill off their customer base.
The weight of glycol will depend on the quantity!
