Best Answer

The most efficient, and safe, place for a beaker to be heated is above the flame. Have the beaker held up by the proper metal stand and have it held so that the flame is grazing the bottom of the beaker. Be careful though, the flame should only graze the bottom of the beaker so that the chemical doesn't heat up too quickly.
