Answer:
2. A 1 litre mug of hot chocolate at 75 degrees.

Explanation:
Thermal energy is directly proportional to mass, so as the mass increases, the thermal energy of the substance increases as well.

The 1 liter mug of hot chocolate at 75 degrees has the greater thermal energy.

First of all we must notice that the 1/2 litre mug and the 1 litre mug both contain chocolate. In other words, they contain the same substance at the same temperature. If this is the case, we will now proceed to compare both solutions to determine which one has a greater thermal energy.

We must note that the one  litre mug contains a greater mass of solution compared to the half litre jug. The jug that contains the greatest mass of solution will contain the greatest thermal energy. Therefore, the 1 liter mug of hot chocolate at 75 degrees has the greater thermal energy.
