Yes, and yes.
-- Whales can hear each other.
-- You can hear through motel walls, especially when you want to sleep.
Sound waves require a medium such as air, solid, or liquid in order to propagate. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for propagation and can move through a vacuum.
Solid, liquid & air
Solid
All properties such as a as liquid, solid, or a gas. All sound goes through a medium of a solid, liquid or a gas.
sound (or any wave for that matter) travels fastest through a solid because the molecules are more closely packed together than in a liquid or gas. waves propagate by creating disturbances in molecules. since molecules in a solid are closer, one molecule will disturb an adjacent one sooner.

Yes, it can propagate as long as there is a medium.
it depends on the sound you heard. ..if it is solid or liquid... but no DEFINITION....
No. At least in a gas and liquid, mechanical waves, including sound, can only propagate as longitudinal waves.

A liquid
sound needs a material medium to travel. Sound can travel by compression and rarefactions.attma
