The object with particles that have the highest average kinetic energy is **a drop of water at 90°C**.

Kinetic energy of particles is directly related to temperature; therefore, the higher the temperature, the greater the average kinetic energy of the particles. In this case, the water at 90°C has the highest temperature among the options given.
