Solution

The best definition of evaporation is: "Evaporation is a type of separating technique used to separate a solvent from a solution."

This is because evaporation involves the process of turning liquid into vapor (or gas), effectively separating it from the solution. The remaining substance will be the solute that was originally dissolved in the liquid.
