Usually.
Generally, sound moves faster through a solid than through a liquid. This is because the molecules of a solid are more condensed than those of a liquid. However, sound does not move faster through all solids than through all liquids.1
Sound moves through a solid faster than anything. In order it goes, solid, liquid, and gas. So metal is faster than water is faster than air.
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.

Mechanical waves (like seismic waves) will travel faster through a solid than a liquid.
They travel faster through solids

Solid. Because it's more dense.
A wave will move faster through a liquid than a gas and even faster through a solid than a liquid. This is due to that the particles are closser together in a liquid than a gas and even closer in a solid than a liquid so the wave has a tighter medium to travel through or less of a "jump" between the atoms.
Solid, because that kind of wave goes fastest through solids
Sound is a compression wave that travels via then vibrations of particles. If the particles are closer together then the wave (sound) moves faster. Particles are closer together in a liquid than a gas, therefore sound travels faster through liquids.
because you can pour a liquid but not a solid so therefore a liquid moves faster than a solid to get to the object it is required to get to.
