Chapter 20.1, Problem 20.2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of an aldopentose and a ketohexose has to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Monosaccharides are organic molecules that have a general formula of (CH2O)n, in which a hydrocarbon chain that carries alcohol functional groups on all but one carbon. The remaining carbon may carry an aldehyde group (in the case of an aldose) or a ketone group (in the case of ketoses).

Aldopentose is a five carbon monosaccharide in which an aldehyde group is present.

Ketohexose is a six carbon monosaccharide in which a keto group is present.
