What are the organic chemical groups that characterized carbohydrates?

The group you are looking for is the "carboxyl" group -COOH. It should be noted, however, that while the carboxyls are by far the most common organic acids, there are other groups that can impart acidity to organic compounds as well, such as the sulphonics, SO2OH.

What is r-cooh?

R = aryl or alkyl group. O = Oxygen, C = Carbon, H = Hydrogen. With that said: R-COOH Indicates an aryl/alkyl bound to a carbon, bound to two oxygens and one oxygen is bound to a hydrogen. If you complete their valence shells you get. R-C=O | O-H
