One US tablespoon (14.8 ml) of table salt weighs 18.3 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 173468 “Salt, table”, portion “1 cup” = 292 grams, and 1 US cup = 16 US tablespoons. In kitchen measures that is just under 8 1/4 tablespoons.

The same 150 grams of table salt is 0.51 US cups or 24.7 US teaspoons.

This is the level US tablespoon of 14.8 ml. The metric tablespoon of 15 ml (UK, New Zealand, Canada) is 1.4 % larger and takes 8.1 tablespoons; the Australian tablespoon of 20 ml is 35.3 % larger, so the same weight fills only 6.08 tablespoons of those.
