Step-by-step explanation:

First we convert these temperatures into °C:

77°F = 25°C

95°F = 35°C

280K = 6.85°C

300K = 26.85°C

When temperature increases, water molecules have a greater average kinetic energy ans are more likely to collide with each other.

Out of the 4 temperatures, only 95°F (35°C) is of a higher temperature than 30°C. Hence 95°F is the answer.
