Answer:

The true statement is that sound travels through solids easier than liquids

Step-by-step explanation:

The first statement is wrong as sound travels faster within a denser medium

The third statement is wrong as sound travels faster within a denser medium

The fourth statement is wrong as solids are denser than liquids. That is why when you put your ear on the track of a train (DON'T TRY IT) the sound reaches faster to your ears than if you hear something underwater
