.eq() -An integer indicating the 0-based position of the element.

Ex:

Consider a page with a simple list on it:

<ul>
<li>list item 1</li>
<li>list item 2</li>
<li>list item 3</li>
<li>list item 4</li>
</ul>

We can apply this method to the set of list items:

$( "li" ).eq( 2 ).css( "background-color", "red" );

For more information : .eq()
