Answer

A) Ice, water, steam

Explanation

Ice is inform of a solid. Solids have particles that are tightly packed and they are in a regular pattern. For this reason they have the most ordered arrangement.

Water is a liquid. It has particles that are closely together but they are not in regular arrangement. For this reason they are next after ice.

Steam is in gaseous state. Gases have particles that are well separated with no definite arrangement. Hence they are the least in the order of molecule arrangement.
