Evaporation is when liquids gain enough energy to convert into gaseous phase. Saltwater is a solution of salt and water. Water is a liquid, and salt is a solid, it's just in very small pieces. Water can evaporate since it is a liquid, but salt cannot evaporate since it is a solid. After all the water has evaporated, you are left with salt.
