Answer 1

The correct response is:

All of the particles will have the same kinetic energy, but the particles in the water will have more potential energy.

This is because, at the same temperature, the average kinetic energy of the particles in both ice and water is the same. However, the water molecules, which are in a liquid state, have more potential energy compared to the ice, which is in a solid state, due to the greater freedom of movement and the arrangement of particles.
