The best procedure to investigate the transfer of kinetic energy using ice in a sample of water is 1.
This procedure includes recording the temperature of the water before and after adding ice, which allows for direct measurement of how the kinetic energy (related to temperature) changes as the ice melts and thermal energy is transferred between the ice and water.
