All that is required for sound to travel is the presence of atoms. One atom bumps into the next, transfers its kinetic energy, and thus the sound is transmitted. Solid matter is made up of atoms, ergo, sound can pass through it.
sound is made up of vibrations, and so you hear sound as the vibrations travel through the particles of solids liquids and gases.
no sound travels faster through solids.

s-waves travel through solids only
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
No.
Yes, a P-wave can travel through gas. P-waves are seismic waves that are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. They compress and expand the material they travel through, which allows them to propagate through gases as well.
Sounds can't travel through a vacuum, it requires a medium (something to travel through). It can travel through the rest but the best is gases because the particles are more spaced out, unlike solids and liquids which are more closely packed.
Sounds appear louder when travelling through solids because solids are denser and have a higher propagation speed than gases. This allows for more efficient transfer of sound energy, resulting in louder perceived sound levels. Additionally, solids provide a more direct pathway for sound waves to travel without dissipating as quickly as in air.
Sound travels fastest through solids, followed by liquids, and slowest through gases like air. This is because the particles in solids are more closely packed together, allowing sound waves to travel more efficiently. In liquids, the particles are also closely packed but not as dense as in solids, resulting in slightly slower sound transmission.
Air can travel through some kinds of solids, if they are porous. Otherwise it can't. It can travel through liquids in the form of bubbles. It does not exactly travel through gases so much as mix with them.
