Can't be answered unless you know how much air is between the chunks. The density of NaCl is 2.16 g/cm3. A cm3 is the same as a milliliter.
There are 3785.41178 ml in a gallon so a gallon would weigh 3785.41178 x 2.16 grams = 8176.4894448 grams.
So, in pounds, a chunk of NaCl (with no air space) would weigh 18.0260736 pounds...and, since the least precise term (presuming that "a gallon" is infinitely precise) was the density, that answer ought to be rounded to 3 significant digits: 18.0 pounds.

Use the particle theory of matter to explain why table salt dissolves more rapidly than rock salt?
Table salt is made up of smaller clumps of particles than rock salt. To dissolve, particles of the salt must come in contact with the solvent particles than rock salt, resulting in faster dissolving. (Copied from the Pure Substance & Mixtures Section of some Nelson Literacy Science Text Book) :)
