Solution

The correct option is C Large
The molecular mass of a polymer chain can be obtained by multiplying the mass of each repeating unit by the degree of polymerization and then adding the mass of end groups.
A polymer is a substance or material consisting of very large molecules, or macromolecules, composed of many repeating subunits. Hence, the molecular mass of a polymer is large.

Hence, option $D$ is correct.
