    Question

    The speed of sound is maximum in:

    A.

    Solid

    B.

    Liquid

    C.

    Gas

    D.

    Vacuum

    Correct option is A

    The speed of sound is greatest in solids, followed by liquids, and slowest in gases. This is because molecules in a solid are closely packed, allowing sound waves to transmit more quickly through the material. In a vacuum, sound cannot travel at all, since there are no molecules to propagate the sound waves.
