like with many scientific problems, you have to be careful how you ask the question! What do you mean by 'best'? Fastest? Farthest? Loudest?
I'll assume you meant fastest. The speed of sound depends on both the density and the elasticity of the medium it's travelling through. Sounds travels in waves of compression and rarity, so it's fastest in solids because the molecules are packed together more tightly. Sound is next fastest in liquids, again for the same reason. It's slowest in a gas. And, in a gas, the temperature is particularly important--the faster the molecules are moving from heat, the more sound energy they can transfer to their neighbors.
As far as distance travelled --- again, solids and liquids win. However, ther's an additional factor called 'damping' that depends on the elesticity of the medium the sounds waves are travelling through, also scattering. It ends up that lower-frequency sound waves can travel much longer distances than high frequency sounds....this is how whales can communicate over long distances in the ocean--and how elephants do the same in air. Both do their 'long distance' calling with low frequencies
The mantle of course.....because sound waves travel through liquid like surfaces better than solid rock.
Sound (and vibration) are a wave system of sequential compressions and rarefactions of a material. These waves are mechanical and do need a substance through which to travel. They cannot travel through a vacuum.
a solid spred through a liquid
it is a gas
Oh, waves are like happy little messengers of nature, spreading joy wherever they go. They can travel through three main mediums: solid, liquid, and gas. Whether it's the gentle ripples on a pond, the soothing sounds of the ocean, or the whisper of wind through the trees, waves always find a way to express themselves.

Light travels faster through liquid than through solid. The speed of light in a medium is determined by the refractive index of the material, which is lower in liquid compared to solid materials.

Primary waves (P-waves) are the seismic waves that can travel through both solid and liquid materials. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through the Earth's interior, passing through both solid and liquid layers.
Solid. Because it's more dense.
water travels through solids and liquids if there is a hole or a gap in the solid
depending on the nature of the solid liquid or gas. usually gas the fastest followed by liquid than solid.
i think you need a solid liquid and gas first to do this project
No, sound waves require a medium to travel through. The medium could be a solid, liquid, or gas, but they cannot travel through a vacuum because there are no particles to transmit the vibrations that carry the sound.
It travels through all three, but at different speeds.
