It is either organic nor a molecule.

KOH contains potassium (K), oxygen (O), and hydrogen (H), but not carbon (C) and a compound must contain carbon to be considered organic.

Like all potassium compounds KOH is ionic, not molecular.

No. It contains the elements potassium (K), oxygen (O), and hydrogen (H) only.

In order to be organic a compound must contain carbon (C).
