Using a solubility chart for sodium chloride (salt), like the one in the link, we get at 20°C [68°F] 35.7 grams per 100 mL water. This equates to about 3 pounds of salt per gallon water. At higher temperatures, more salt can be dissolved.

Therefore, all of the salt will be dissolved, and the volume will not change, so the brine solution will be 1000 gallons.
