The evaporation of a liquid in a closed container is much more difficult than in an opened container. The liquid evaporating is trapped inside of a closed container and allowed to freely move into the atmosphere in an open container.

That depends on the sise of the container the temperature and the amount of liquid that already exists in the atmosphere in the container. For example if you were to take a container with air in it that had no humidity, i.e the air is perfectly dry, then placed an amount water in it and closed the lid sealing it from the outside the liquid would evaporate until the humidity of the ir had reached just under 100% which would take very little water unless the container was the sise of a silo, and then cease to evaporate.

The particles of water that evaporate from an open container are mostly pure water. The particles that remain are solids that were dissolved in the water.

Higher (heat) energy.

That's why sweating cools you.

Is water more likely to evaporate with salt or with chemicals?

Water is water. It will evaporate no matter what is it. The real question is whether or not the chemicals or salt will evaporate with the water or not. The answer to that is no. The salt/chemicals will stay in the container.
