Yes, sound energy can propagate through gas ( that's the reason we can hear as sound energy travels through the ear to the human ear.)

Why does a sound travels in solid liduid and gas but not in vaccum?
Sound is a mechanical wave which needs badly a material medium. Hence through vacuum it cannot pass through
Why does sound travel slowly through gas?
Sound travels slowly through gas because the particles in a gas are further away then the particles in a solid or a liquid. This makes it take longer for the sound waves to travel through the particles in gases because it takes longer for them to collide with each other; this makes it take longer for the particles to pass on the sound vibration.
What material can sound energy travel through slowly?
The more closely packed molecules are in a medium, the faster sound travels through the medium, so sound travels slowest through a gas under low pressure.
Is sound a gas?
Sound is a kind of energy. It is the vibrational energy being propagated in the form of longitudinal waves. So sound is not a gas but it needs a gas or other medium to propagate in.
Can sound travel through a balloon filled with hydrogen gas?
Sure, sound travels in all mediums, it just can't travel through vacuum.
How can energy pass through solid liquid gas?
moles
What energy change occurs when sound is produced?
Sound energy causes the particles in the medium it is traveling through to vibrate. The medium is a solid, liquid or gas.
Can sound enter into a solid or a liquid or a gas?
Yes, it can. In fact, for sound to move through anything, it has to "enter" it. Sound is mechanical energy, and this mechanical energy is transferred into the medium through which the sound is traveling. The medium itself supports the transfer of the (mechanical) energy of sound.
Is sound waves a gas?
no, it's a mechanism for transmitting sound. and sound isn't limited to gas either. It can pass through solids (you can listen through a wall or a door) and through liquids (you can still hear when your ears are submerged in a bath or a pool)

What causes sound not to pass through milk?
It does; sound will be transmitted through any medium, be it solid, liquid or gas. The sound might be attenuated through long distances, but we don't generally have large volumes of milk in which to test.
Can sound pass through other gas and not just Oxygen?
yes and remember that air is nitrogen and oxygen and other gasses. ___________ It can pass on any possible gas, also liquids and solids.

Does gas have a short a sound?
Yes. The a has a short A sound as in mass and pass.
