(a)
Interpretation:
Each of the given compounds should be classified based on whether it is aldose or ketose and the numbers of carbon atoms presented in it (example: aldopentose).
Concept introduction:
- Carbohydrates are classified into two based on the presence of either
aldehyde group orketone group, that is aldose and ketose. - Monosaccharides are simple sugars or carbohydrates.
- monosaccharides are classified on the basis of,
- Presents of aldehyde or ketone group such as aldo or keto.
- Number of carbon atoms presented in a carbohydrates, triose (3 carbon), tetrose (4 carbon), pentose (5 carbon), hexose (6 carbon) or heptose (7 carbon) (ose indicates the carbohydrates).
To classify: the given compound (a) based on whether it is aldose or ketose and the numbers of carbon atoms presented in it.
