Yes... beacuse in solids, molecules are very near and tightly bounded so sound waves transmit very fast and effectively... while in liquids molecules are very far so waves don't travel in liquids

Kaustub5899: waves travel in liquids
Kaustub5899: but not as fast as solids

Yes. Sound travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than gases. This is because sound requires a medium to travel and in solids, the molecules which vibrate transfer energy at a fast rate than in liquids or gases. The same reason applies for why sound travels faster in liquids than gases. Hope it helps.
