    The solid phase has the lowest entropy.

    Explanation:

    Entropy (S) is the measure of how spread out or dispersed the energy of a system is among the different possible ways that system can contain energy. The greater the dispersal, the greater is the entropy.

    In a solid, the atoms or molecules are confined to fixed positions, thus, the dispersal is minimal and the entropy is at its lowest.
