So where I live there’s a heat advisory saying it’s 95 but feels like 113. Can gas burn or ‘evaporate’ more when it’s hotter outside. I know it’s supposed to burn in the engine but can it burn up faster when it’s hotter outside?

The engine is less efficient when the inlet air is hotter. Internal combustion engines fundamentally get power from the difference between the inlet temperature and exhaust temperature. So, while the gasoline does not “burn faster”, the engine is deriving less power on hot days.
