Entropy is a measure of chaos or disorder in a system. For the first one, the system with the highest entropy is a cup of water at 0 degress centigrade.  For the second question, the system with the lowest entropy is  sugar crystals in 95 degrees centigrade cup of coffee. 

The answer to the first question: Which of the following systems has the highest entropy?  Is actually A cup of water at 50 degree C.

Glad I could help :)
