And plasma - electrons get knocked off atoms and fluid becomes electrically conducting. Highest KE of all. Sorry hear about duck your.

Solid - Minimum KE. Molecules in fixed position vibrating about a mean position.
Liquid - More free to move Has surface tension. More KE than solid.
Gas- Molecules freely moving around. Highest KE.
