Candle Tarts Molds

Making Candles....?
I'm new to candle making and I can't find a website that will answer the questions I need answered, so please help me.
1. About how many pounds of wax is there in an 8oz jar candle.
2. How many ounces of a scent should I use per pound? (Strong Scent)
3. How much dye should I use per pound? (Typically speaking, how much is not enough and how much is too much?)
4. How many pounds (1/4 pound 1/2 pound etc) should I use in a 1 oz tart mold?
Thank you so much, please no websites, I want your opinions.

1.I usually weigh out how much the container or mold is to the wax. So, if my container is 8 ounces, I measure out 8 ounces of wax. This gives me enough for the 1st & 2nd pour (or more of needed).
2. 1 ounce of scent per pound for paraffin. If I want it heavily scented I will add a bit more.
3. dye all depends on judgement. Its much better to use too little than too much. You can always add more. Just a few drops is usually plenty for me. Or if your using block dye, a tiny shaving.
4. Again, 1 oz of wax.
