(a)
Interpretation:
The given Haworth projection should be converted into an open-chain form and to Fischer projections. Also, name the monosaccharide so formed.
Concept Introduction:
A Haworth projection is a way to write structral fornula that reprsents the cyclic structure of a monosaccharide. There are following characteristics a Haworth projection should have:
In the Haworth projection, for six carbon atoms, the
The Fischer projection is two dimensional representation of the three-dimensional projection. It is used to differentiate between D and L molecules. In the D configuration, the carbon next to the last has hydrogen on the left and hydroxyl group on the right whereas in L configuration, the hydrogen is on the right a hydroxyl group on the left.
All the horizontal bonds in the Fischer projection are directed towards the viewer and vertical bonds are directed away from the viewer.

Interpretation:
The given Haworth projection should be converted into an open-chain form and to Fischer projections. Also, name the monosaccharide so formed.
Concept Introduction:
A Haworth projection is a way to write structral fornula that reprsents the cyclic structure of a monosaccharide. There are following characteristics a Haworth projection should have:
In the Haworth projection, for six carbon atoms, the atoms are numbered from 1 to 6 and carbon 1 is known as anomeric carbon. The ticker line denotes the atoms closer to the observer and thiner lines denotes the atoms away from the observer.
