Answer:

As a result, sound waves travel faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gasses. While the density of a medium also affects the speed of sound, the elastic properties have a greater influence on the wave speed. The density of a medium is the second factor that affects the speed of sound. ( sorry its a bit long :b)
