Based on the table, Jasmine is the student who correctly ranks the potential energies of the states of matter from lowest to highest.
The correct student is Lucas, as his ranking of potential energy for the states of matter (solid, gas, liquid) matches the order in the table.
To answer the question, we need to compare the rankings of potential energy for each state of matter given by each student.
Looking at the rankings given by each student, we can see that:
- Henry ranks the states of matter as gas, liquid, solid.
- Jasmine ranks the states of matter as gas, solid, liquid.
- Lucas ranks the states of matter as solid, gas, liquid.
- Tasha ranks the states of matter as solid, liquid, gas.
If we compare these rankings with the rankings of potential energy for states of matter, we can see that the correct ranking is gas, liquid, solid.
Among the given options, the student who correctly ranks the potential energy of states of matter is Jasmine. Therefore, the correct answer is Jasmine.
