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.

Is the most dangerous thing cigarettes nicotine?
No, the most dangerous thing is the Polonium 210, which is also in the cigarettes. 210Po is an alpha emiter that has a half-life of 138.376 days, their median Lethal Dose is estimated 10 (inhaled) at 50 ng (ingested) in humans makes this one of the most toxic substances known. One gram in theory could poison 100 million people of which 50 million will die. On the other hand 40-60 mg of nicotine (0.5-1.0 mg/kg) can be a lethal dosage for adult humans.
What is the effect of LD50 30 radiation on human skin?
LD50/30 radiation refers to the dose of radiation required to kill (LD=Lethal Dose) 50% of the test cohort within 30 days. Its normally specified for a particular species, rats, rabbits etc and is thought to be about 3-4 Sieverts in humans. The wikipedia article "Radiation Poisoning" has a table of effects of increasing radiation on humans. Note that at 3-4 Sv there are no skin effects if it is whole body exposure.

Is antifreeze poisonous if boiling?
Yes, it is always poisonous.The main components of antifreezes are:Methanol (mainly in windshield antifreeze) - lethal dose is about 6 g/kg body weight. Even before you reach the lethal dose it can kill optic nerves (make you blind) and destroy your liver.Propylene Glycol (PG) - main ingredient in "safer" forms of engine antifreeze/ coolants. While it is only about 1/3 as toxic to dogs (who may try to lick up spills because it tastes good to them) the oral LD50 (the dose that will kill 50% of dogs who get that much) of PG in dogs is 22g/k. Consuming PG can result in acidosis, liver damage, and renal insufficiency. Clinical signs of a propylene glycol toxicoses include CNS depression, weakness, ataxia, and seizures. With large ingestion, diuresis and supportive care, such as treatment for acidosis, should be given.Ethylene glycol (EG) - the most dangerous form of antifreeze. Most commercial antifreeze products contain between 95-97% ethylene glycol. The minimum lethal dose of undiluted ethylene glycol antifreeze is 4.4-6.6ml/kg in dogs and 1.4ml/kg in cats. The lethal dose in people is about 5 or 6 g/kg. EG can cause metabolic acidosis and acute renal tubular necrosis. In most cases of ethylene glycol poisonings, vomiting is seen within the first few hours and then within 1-6 hours signs of depression, ataxia, weakness, tachypnea, polyuria, and polydipsia occur. By 18-36 hours acute renal failure occurs.
