Answer:

27 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

27 grams of salt would still be left behind.

The dissolution of salt in water is a physical reaction and the salt can be recovered by evaporating off the water using appropriate procedures.

Provided that no part of the salt/water mixture is lost during the process of evaporation, if 27 grams of salt was dissolved initially, the same amount of salt would be recovered at the end of the separation process.
