Kinetic energy is directly related to temperature: the higher the temperature, the greater the kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.

In the table provided:

  • Sample 1: 98.2 °C
  • Sample 2: 46.0 °C
  • Sample 3: 100.6 °C
  • Sample 4: 31.4 °C

Among these, Sample 4 has the lowest temperature at 31.4 °C. Therefore, Sample 4 has the lowest kinetic energy.

So the correct response is: 4
