When a hydroxyl group is substituted for a hydrogen atom in a hydrocarbon what type of molecule results?

What is hydrocarbons?
A molecule that contains hydrogen and carbon, but no other elements is a hydrocarbon molecule. An example of a hydrocarbon molecule is methane, with the formula CH4
What is any molecule that contains hydrogen and carbon?
Any molecule that contains hydrogen and carbon is an organic compound. If the molecule contains no other elements, it is also a hydrocarbon.
Is OH Polar or Non- polar covalent?
The O-H bond is polar covalent. Very strongly polar because of the difference in electronegativity.
