It is likely the substance was a salt such as sodium chloride or copper sulphate that was in solution. When the water evaporated it left the solid salts behind.
Heated from the bottom, the warmer substance will slowly rise to the top while the cooler substance at the top falls to the bottom to be heated again. Look at a lava lamp. That is all about convection currents.
Certainly! That's what they're designed for.
Any substance that absorbs the radiation is heated by it.
So that the substance in the evaporation dish is fully protected with the glass! The evaporating dish is used to heat and evaporate liquids. This porcelain item resembles a shallow bowl with a spout. Evaporating dishes are traditionally used to evaporate solvent to concentrate a solution; however they can also be used to hold sand for a sand bath, as a small water bath, or as a drying dish (like a watch glass). If heated by a direct flame, it will often be placed on a clay triangle for support. Thank you for your time! peace.....
The substance created when zinc is heated with sulphur is zinc sulfide.

The water is heated and vaporizes, but the substance dissolved in it can't evaporate and is left behind.
the copper must have combined with another substance.

The evaporating dish would not be harmed if it was heated on a hot plate, but it should be heated on a bunsen burner.

some liquids can decompose when heated
It depends on the substance. Some melt when heated (ice), some evaporate under heat (water) and some become solid when chilled (water into ice). It would be called their melting point, the freezing point and the evaporating point.
The volume of a substance increases when heated, causing a decrease in density.
Its molecules become heated.
