I believe you are referring to rarefaction. The "trough" of a compression / rarefaction wave is called rarefaction.

What are the highest points on a standing wave called?
When the trough of a wave and the crest of a different wave meet, the waves cancel completely. This is called destructive interference.
Why does low pressure air rise and high pressure air sink?
High pressure sinks because there is a lot of particles together and low pressure is when particles are spread out
Is warm air less dence than cold air?
Yes because the particles spread out more cuz their moving faster
What is it called when the earth's plates spread apart?
Plate Tectonics
Is rarefaction a high pressure area of tightly packed molecules?
No. A rarefaction is the region of a sound wave where the particles are spread out rather than close together. The closer together regions are compressions. These terms are used about waves in air, not weather systems.
Has areas where particles are spread out?
compressional waves
What has area where particles are spread out?
compressional waves
What wave are areas where particles spread out?
Longitudanal or compressional waves
What wave has areas where particles are spread out?
Longitudanal or compressional waves
What kind of wave has areas where particles are spread out?
compressional waves
What wave is example of a compressional wave?
a slinky spread out and then grab a few coils and release and watch a compressional wave! Another example is a sound wave. the particles compressed together form a compression. The particles more widely spread apart form a rarefaction.slinkySound waveCompressional waves are also called mechanical waves. Examples include the plasma waves or guided waves.

What is the spread apart portion of a compressional wave?
Wavelength
How are smells spread through the air?
smells spread due to diffusion , wich is the movement of smoke and ohter air particles from a region of high concentration to a region lower concentration
Undissolved particles spread throughout a liquid are called?
a suspension
What is it called when particles spread out to different parts of the room at different times?
if this is about the motion of the particles,it is brownian motion.the random motion of the particles.
What do you call the substance in witch particles are being spread out?
it is called a liquid
