Using a measuring cylinder, add 50cm3 of 1.0mol dm-3 sulphuric(VI) acid to the thyme extract in the conical flask. 8. Titrate the solution in the conical flask with the potassium manganate(VII) solution until a pale pink colour persists for 10 seconds. 9. Repeat the titration until there are two titres within 0.1cm3 of each other.
