E(gas) > E(liquid) > E(solid)
That is, the solid has lowest energy, and has has highest energy.
Because you have to put energy into the material to melt and then boil it.
In more detail...
First the material is solid, in a nice stable low energy state. By heating the material you are transferring energy into the material. When you have put enough energy in you disrupt the van der waals forces and the material melts. Now you have a liquid which must be a higher energy because you put energy into it to melt it.
Similarly, to boil the liquid you must add sufficient energy so the molecules can completely overcome the van der Waals forces to enter the gas phase.
A fixed amount of water tends to have the least amount of kinetic energy in its solid state, as the molecules are tightly packed and have limited movement. This is why ice has lower kinetic energy compared to liquid water or water vapor.
If the molecules in question have a solid phase, for example water which goes from liquid to solid, namely ice, then least kinetic energy is the solid phase, with minimum kinetic occurring at 0 Kelvin (absolute zero).
The energy required to melt a substance. (Apex)
The amount of energy required to change from a liquid to a solid is called the heat of fusion. This energy is needed to disrupt the intermolecular forces holding the particles in a liquid state and rearrange them into a solid structure. It is also known as the latent heat of fusion.
The four stages of matter in order from least kinetic energy to most kinetic energy are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. In a solid, particles have the least kinetic energy and are tightly packed together. In a plasma, particles have the most kinetic energy and are ionized.

Water would require the least amount of energy to change 1kg from a solid to a liquid because it has a lower melting point compared to the other materials listed (ethanol, aluminum, propane).
The energy required to melt a substance. (Apex)
The amount of heat energy required to solid substance solid into a liquid state without any changes in temperature ______________________ Apex: The amount of energy required to turn a mole of a solid into a liquid
The amount of energy increased.
The amount of energy required to change from a liquid to a solid is called the heat of fusion. This energy is needed to disrupt the intermolecular forces holding the particles in a liquid state and rearrange them into a solid structure. It is also known as the latent heat of fusion.
the amount of motion of each molecule increases. i.e the amount of disorder increases. since the motion is increasing as an object gets converted from solid to liquid to gas, the energy level increases.
the liquid (in science) always or usually has more energy.
The order from greatest energy of particles to least energy of particles is: Plasma > Gas > Liquid > Solid.
