That is a very good question. You can put it at the beginning of the sentence, but it's a lot more common to put it at the end.

In what key is that song? ok
What key is that song in? best

Wait, I thought you can't put a preposition at the end of a sentence...
Where are you going to?
Where are you going?

Lots of people teach that it is wrong to end a sentence with a preposition, but, alas, there really isn't such a rule. The "rule" you've heard about was fostered a long time ago. Its aim was to make the English language align better with its Latin roots. The problem with this "rule" is that English grammar didn't come from Latin, so it seems a bit silly to rearrange our sentences to try to conform to a rule that actually breaks the rules of English grammar.

It's perfectly fine to end a sentence with a preposition.

Both sentences you wrote are perfectly fine and mean exactly the same thing. The second sentence is more popular because we don't even have to use a preposition.

In the sentences that David wrote, the preposition in is required and it can go in either place he indicated. The second sentence he proposed is more popular because that's the way we say it. And it isn't breaking any rules to do so.

oh, I see. One of my teachers said that :P

There's a famous Winston Churchill quote, where he allegedly responded to someone who told him he couldn't end a sentence with a preposition. He said:

That is something up with which I will not put.

okay, so it's okay if you put a preposition at the end of a sentence. Got it.
