A simple carbohydrate with 6 carbons is aldohexose or a six-carbon aldehyde. Aldohexose is a monosaccharide that has an aldehyde group on one end.
The general term is hexose; if you were looking for a specific example, both glucose and fructose are hexoses.

This could be simple sugars - but then it could be a lot of other things too.
The correct molecular formula if a molecule has 6 carbons is : C6. The 'C' is the symbol for carbon and the little '6' tells us that there are 6 carbons in a particular molecule.

Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The general formula for carbohydrates is (CH2O)n, where n represents the number of carbon atoms. Each carbohydrate molecule contains at least one oxygen atom for each carbon atom present.
The prefixes for naming hydrocarbons are based on the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. They include: meth- (1 carbon), eth- (2 carbons), prop- (3 carbons), but- (4 carbons), pent- (5 carbons), hex- (6 carbons), hept- (7 carbons), oct- (8 carbons), non- (9 carbons), dec- (10 carbons).
6 ring structure, simple carbohydrate, contains an ether bond, can be used to make glycogen, maltose, etc... a monosaccaride.

When chemists name compounds, we look at the length of the parent chain (in this case, 6 carbons.) and the functional group(s) (in this case, carboxylic acid). A regular 6C (all single bonds) hydrocarbon is termed "hexane" , the prefix "hex-" denoting the 6 carbons. When naming a compound with the carboxylic acid functional group, we add the suffix "-oic acid". Thus, a 6C carboxylic acid is hexanoic acid
