Old ans:

"salt usually doesnt affect the evaporation of water because when the water is evaporated, the salt is left behind."

The a/m ans is out of point.

Whilst salt doesn't evaporate, it reduces evaporation by

i) increasing the boiling point by:

ii) ionic bonding to H2O. This bonding 'stickiness to water moleq' makes it more difficult for the H2O to evaporate (vaporize).

So yet, salt content affects the evaporation of H2O by reducing it.
