The correct response would be:
in: least energy above: greatest energy
In general, the molecules in the ice (which is solid) have the least kinetic energy due to their structured arrangement and lower temperature. The molecules in the soda (which is liquid) have more kinetic energy than those in the ice but less than the gaseous molecules above the soda, which have the greatest kinetic energy due to their higher temperature and freedom of movement.
