Yes it does,all the molecules are packed together.
Sound travels slowest through air because the particles in the air are spread apart.
Air.
sound will travel through air (gas), the slowest. Because the molecule sin the air are farther apart. Actually rubber it will travel through rubber the slowest. Air is second slowest then water and then granite was all I learned . Also Saltwater is faster then water becaus e there more salt so air goes through it faster.

yeah sound travels fastest through solids , than that through liquids and slowest in air and does not travel through Vaccum
Sound travels slowest through d) wood. Wood is a solid material and sound waves travel slower in solids compared to liquids and gases like air, glass, and water.
Well sound would travel the slowest - i.e not at all - in a vacuum. However, for simplistic terms, rubber is actually the slowest that sound will travel through of common objects. I don't know but something like sodium at 3K might be a lot slower.
Sound waves require a medium, such as air or water, to propagate because they rely on the vibration of molecules. In a vacuum, there are no molecules for the sound waves to travel through, so they cannot propagate, resulting in the absence of sound.
by air
Sound waves travel the slowest in gases, such as air. This is because the molecules in gases are more spread out compared to liquids and solids, which slows down the transfer of sound energy.
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.
sound travels the fastest in solids, then liquids, then gas. So it would travel through iron the fastest, then water, then air.
