\text{ C}_1Cl_2F_2

Molecular weight of Freon-12

1 carbon = 12

2 chlorines = 2 x 35 = 70

2 flourines = 19 x 2 = 38

Total mass = 120g

120 g of Freon-12 ---------------------- 12 g are carbon

1200 g of Freon-12 ------------------------ x

x = (1200 x 12) / 120

x = 120 g of Carbon

The answer is 120g
