It's a compound--one part carbon, one part oxygen, two parts hydrogen, such as C6H12O6. A simple alcohol is not a carbohydrate, even though it contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, because the ratios are all wrong. Look at ethanol. It consists of ethane, a hydrocarbon with the formula C2H6, with one hydrogen atom replaced by a hydroxyl group--an OH--making the formula for ethanol C2H5OH.
