16 Carbohydrates
Carbohydrate a polyhydroxyaldehyde or Carbohydrate:

polyhydroxyketone, or a substance that gives these compounds on hydrolysis Monosaccharide a carbohydrate that cannot be hydrolyzed Monosaccharide: to a simpler carbohydrate
monosaccharides have the general formula CnH2nOn, where n varies from 3 to 8 aldose a monosaccharide containing an aldehyde group aldose: ketose a monosaccharide containing a ketone group ketose:

16 Monosaccharides
monosaccharides are classified by their number of carbon atoms

Name triose tetrose pentose hexose heptose octose

Formula C 3 H 6 O3 C 4 H 8 O4 C 5 H 10 O5 C 6 H 12 O6 C 7 H 14 O7 C 8 H 16 O8 16-4

16 Monosaccharides
There are only two trioses
CHO CHOH CH 2 OH Glyceraldehyde (an aldotriose) CH 2 OH C=O CH 2 OH D ihydroxyacetone (a ketotriose)

often aldo- and keto- are omitted and these compounds are referred to simply as trioses although this designation does not tell the nature of the carbonyl group, it at least tells the number of carbons 16-5
