answer for the a p e x ;]

Since the molecules in a solid are more closely packed compared to liquids and gases, the order of the speed of sound is; solids > liquids > gases

Speeed of sound:

The speed of sound refers to how fast sound travels in a substance. We know that the order of increasing speed of sound is solids > liquids > gases.

Sound is faster in solids because the molecules of a solid are more closely held compared to liquids and especially gases where molecules are far aapart from each other.
