It takes longer to boil because there is more of it that therefor takes longer to heat up. This is because a larger volume of liquid is needed to be heated to the same temperature as a small volume of liquid.

Will water with salt evaporate faster than water without salt experiment?

Water with salt will actually take longer than water without salt to evaporate. This is due to boiling point elevation. If you put a solute into water, it will make it more difficult to boil, and therefore will boil at a higher temperature. Since it takes longer for the salt water to boil, it will take longer for it to evaporate as well
