Is the moon closer to earth or is mars?
The Earth's distance from the moon or Mars is always changing. The closest the moon can get to Earth is 225,622 miles. The farthest it can get is 252,088 miles. The closest possible distance from Earth to Mars is 33.9 million miles. Therefore the Earth is always much closer to the moon than Mars, no matter where they are in orbit.
Is mars next to the sun or moon?
Mars is closer to the Earth than to the sun by 150 million kilometers. The moon's orbit is definitely much, much less than 150 million kilometers. So, I conclude that the moon is closer to Mars than the Sun.

Is the moon closer to the sun than mars?
Since the Moon accompanies Earth, it basically has the same distance to the Sun as Earth does. Sometimes a bit closer, sometimes a bit farther, but this difference is insignificant. The Earth - and therefore the Moon as well - is closer to the Sun than Mars.

No. The moon is closer to Earth than Mars is, but it orbits Earth independent of the motion of Mars. Sometimes the moon may appear right next to Mars in the sky while at other times it may be opposite Mars.
Is the moon or mars closter to the sun?
The moon is closer to the sun. Since the moon orbits Earth, it is always about the same distance from the sun as Earth is.
Is the Moon's orbital wobble changing from east west to north south and what will the effect be on Earth with Mars moving closer to the moon and is it pushing the moon closer to Earth?
The moon doesn't wobble, if you refer to the movement commonly called 'libration'. That is an apparent motion only, and not a true motion of the moon. There is both east/west libration and north/south libration, and they are independent of one another. Mars is not pushing the moon closer to earth. On average, the moon is very slowly moving farther and farther from the earth, not closer.
How moon affect the oceans?
