Solution

The correct option is A This process is condensation
The phenomenon which involves the change of state from liquid to gas is known as evaporation. On heating the spoon full of saltwater over the spirit lamp, water will evaporate leaving salt behind in the spoon. The same phenomenon is used to obtain salt from the sea water.
