Solution

To find the minimum molecular mass of the compound, we need to consider the percentage of carbon by mass.

Given that the compound contains 80% carbon by mass, we can assume that the remaining 20% is made up of other elements.

To calculate the minimum molecular mass, we need to consider the atomic masses of carbon and the other elements present in the compound.

Since we don't have information about the specific elements present, we cannot determine the exact molecular mass. Therefore, we cannot choose any of the given options (15 amu, 60 amu, 80 amu, or 30 amu) as the minimum molecular mass of the compound.
