Existing stockpiles of the refrigerant Freon-12, CF 2 Cl 2 , must be destroyed under the terms

Question:

Existing stockpiles of the refrigerant Freon-12, CF2Cl2, must be destroyed under the terms of the Montreal Protocol because of their potential for harming the ozone layer. One method for doing this involves reaction with sodium oxalate:

CFCl + 2 NaCO4  2 NaF + 2 NaCl + C + 4CO

If you had 150 tons of Freon-12, describe how you would know how much sodium oxalate you would need to make that conversion.

Freon-12, CFCl
