The purpose of adding sodium thiosulfate is to remove the excess iodine from the reaction mixture. This is important because iodine is a strong oxidizing agent and can cause side reactions with the organic compounds in the mixture.
Sodium thiosulphate is a colourless monoclinic crystal or a crystalline white powder which is odourless and salty. The relative density for this is 1.667. Water-soluble, Its solubility at 100° C is 231 g/100 ml of vapour.
Potassium bromate, or simply called bromate, is an oxidiser used to strengthen dough and enhance its elasticity. This helps bake uniform and whitened bread. Typically 15-30 parts per million (ppm) of potassium bromate is added to dough
