Most monitors and TVs now have standard mounting holes on the back. Those holes are used to attach the monitor/TV directly to the mounting stand or used to attach some bracket that, in turn, matches the mounting stand.

The surest way to know is to meaure the four points (if they are as they appear) on hte back of the monitor. Measure and write down the vertical and horizontal distances between the holes. May not necessarily be square, rectangular, or trapezoidal.

Check the monitor's User Guide/Manual for instructions with respect to wall or stand mounting. Likewise check the mounting stand specifications with respect to the supported mounting options. Measure there as well.

Determine how the monitors and stands will match up if they match at all.

Be wary of any "universal" mounting products. You really need to see the products and measure the mounting point distances to be sure.

Go online and look for the respective mounting templates - may help confirm or dispell some mounting options.
