Heating the sample over a Bunsen burner helps remove any moisture or volatile impurities that may be present on the surface of the sample. This preheating step ensures that the sample is clean and free of contaminants before being subjected to high temperatures in the muffle furnace, helping to prevent unwanted reactions or interference with the analysis.
