The CSS animation-iteration-count property is used to define the number of cycle or iteration, an animation to play. For example:

HTML with CSS Code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <style>
      div#mydiv {width: 50px; height: 50px; border-radius: 50%;
         background-color: maroon; position: relative;
         animation-name: fresherearth; animation-duration: 2s;
         animation-iteration-count: infinite;}
      @keyframes fresherearth {
         from {background-color: crimson;}
         to {background-color: darkblue; width: 100px; height: 100px;}
      }
   </style>
</head>
<body>

   <div id="mydiv"></div>
   
</body>
</html>

Note - The animation-duration is used to define time to complete one iteration or cycle of an animation.
