Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The members of the given pair of monosaccharides whether possess the same molecular formula or not has to be predicted.

Concept introduction: The simplest hydrolyzed form that is obtained from the carbohydrates is known as monosaccharide.  The general formula for monosaccharidesis ${\text{C}}_{\text{n}}{\left({\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}\right)}_{\text{n}}$.
