Asugar that has the chemical formula c5h10o5 would be characterized as
a pentose
an oligosaccharide
a triose
a hexose
a polysaccharide

The answer to your question is: a. pentose

Explanation:

a) a pentose  is a monosaccharide that has 5 carbons in its structure, if we look at the question the chemical formula only has 5 carbons, then this is the right answer.

b) an oligosaccharide  is a group of 2 or more monosaccharides (till 5 or 6) then, it will have 10 or more carbons, this is not the right answer

c) a triose  is a monosaccharide that has only three carbons, this is not the right answer.

d) a hexose   is a monosaccharide that has 6 carbons, of course this answer is wrong.

e) a polysaccharide is a group of 6 or more monosaccharides, it will have 20 or more carbons, this answer is wrong.
