    2 * 10 g

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The lethal dose 50 (LD50) of Coumarin is 293 mg/kg body mass. The amount of Coumarin that a 70 kg student would have to ingest to reach the LD50 is:

    70 kg body mass * (293 mg/kg body mass) = 20510 mg

    1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams. The mass (in grams) corresponding to 20510 milligrams is:

    20510 mg * (1 g / 1000 mg) = 20.51 g ≈ 2 * 10 g
