Which ones: asks someone to pick out several people or things from a group. It is the plural of 哪个 and needs no measure word: 哪些菜 'which dishes', 哪些人 'which people'. Like other question words, it stands where the answer will go.
Những cái nào, những ai: hỏi để chọn nhiều người hay vật trong một nhóm. Là số nhiều của 哪个, không cần lượng từ: 哪些菜 (những món nào), 哪些人 (những ai). Giống “nào” trong tiếng Việt, nó đứng đúng chỗ của câu trả lời.
