Approximately 1.2 lbs per pass + whatever it takes to fill the lines and what you purge out. Estimated 2 to 2.5 lbs would be a good ball park guess.

You should be able to get around 4 runs before the bottle is half empty and you start to get big pressure drops during the run. I get three runs out of a bottle with a 78 to 85 jet.
