Carbohydrates are classified depending on the number of basic carbohydrate units produced by acid hydrolysis. Thus they are classified as monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.
Monosaccharides are the simplest of carbohydrates that cannot be further hydrolyzed.
Disaccharides When two monosaccharides are combined, we can say that they are disaccharides.
Oligosaccharides are complex sugars that yield 2-10 molecules of the same or different monosaccharides upon hydrolysis.
Polysaccharides can contain more than 10 monosaccharide units.
Now, monosaccharide has a the general formula
