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 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.
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.
The speed of sound is determined by what it travels through. It travels faster through dense mediums, such as liquids, and doesn't travel at all in space, because there are no molecules to move sound waves along.
Iron. The denser the material, the faster the waves can travel through it, because the vibrations carry faster. In addition, since milk is liquid, the motion of the liquid in response to the sound vibrations through air may absorb some of the waves.
Sound energy causes the particles in the medium it is traveling through to vibrate. The medium is a solid, liquid or gas.

They travel faster through solids
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.
The higher the density, the faster the sound. Solids, then liquids, then gasses.
Solid. Because it's more dense.
sound travels faster through a solid than through air
yes and it travels faster than liquid and gas
Sound will usually move faster in a solid than in a liquid.
Sound will usually move faster in a solid than in a liquid.
Through solids fastest, then liquids, then a gas.
sound travel faster through soled because of tighter packed particles
sound energy moves faster in solids and liquids than in a specific part of air
