Sound travels faster through solids because, molecules in solids are much closer together so this allows sound waves to travel faster.
sound travels slower through gases as compared to solids and liquids because there is more inter-moleculer space in gas as compared to solids and liquids.
Sound DOES travel faster in solids than in gases. The higher the density of the medium, the faster the sound travels.
window, because sound travels fastest through solids, liquids second, and gases last.
There are too many 'materials' to list but generally, sound travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. In other words, the denser the material, the faster sound travels.

Yes, sound actually travels faster through solids then liquids or gases.
yes, sound travels faster in liquids and solids than in gases e.g. faster in water than through air. The denser the solid, the faster the sound travels.

It may seem awkward, but sound actually travels faster through solids than gasses, especially dense solids.

The speed of sound depends on the medium through which it is traveling. Sound travels fastest through solids, then liquids, and slowest through gases. As the molecules in a solid medium are closely packed together, sound waves can travel more quickly through it. Sound waves travel over 17 times faster through steel than through air. The molecules in a liquid medium are also more close together than a gaseous medium, so sound travels 4 times faster in fresh water as compared to air. In a gas, sound can travel only when molecules collide with each other, and as the molecules are quite far apart, the speed is slowest in gases.
Yes. The denser the medium, the faster it travels. So, it travels fastest in solids, and slowest in gases. It can range from only about 340 meters per second in air, to over 2000 meters per second in steel.
