Yes, for example: air is made up of several gases (78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, 1% Argon, Carbon Dioxide, & Others) and sound travels through it. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to hear anything, just like in space where there is no gas, and no one can hear you scream.

How does sound made by a virbrating object travel?
Sound is transmitted through gases, plasma, and liquids as longitudinal waves. However, through solids it can be transmitted through either longitudinal waves or transversal waves. To view the source and more information go to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound
Sound can travel through-?
sound can travel through wood and water like if you are in the pool you can make sound of bubble with your mouth under water
Do gases keep their shape?
Gases can NOT change shape because gases don't have a 'shape', it's the container in which they are held that has a shape)
How are green house gases made?
Gases are made when you heat up solids or liquids. Liquids are made when you cool down gases or heat up solids. Solids are made when you cool down gases or solids. When you heat up solids they make liquids and when you heat up liquids it makes gases. When you heat up gases it makes plasma (plas-mu) but that is very very very very very very hard to make.
Who studies sound?
An audiologist studies the properties of sound.
Can gases go through any piece of materials?
Yes gases can go through any peice of materials accept from paper. Einstein found it out
How do you go through solids liquids and gases?
conduction goes through all three objects convection goes through liquids and gases and.. radiation goes through Solid,liquid,gases&space
What sounds travel through gas?
sound passes thro' different media which are generally solids, liquids and gases
Do sound waves travel best through solids liquids gases or vacuums?
Sounds can't travel through a vacuum, it requires a medium (something to travel through). It can travel through the rest but the best is gases because the particles are more spaced out, unlike solids and liquids which are more closely packed.
Do sounds go fastest through wood or steel?
Steel
How Sounds travel through solids liquids and gas?
sound is made up of vibrations, and so you hear sound as the vibrations travel through the particles of solids liquids and gases.
What are the mediums that waves can travel through?
Waves can travel through many media, depending on their nature. Sound waves can go through solids, liquids and gases. Transverse shock waves can only travel through solids. Electromagnetic waves can go through some solids, liquids or gases, or through a vacuum.
How does heat moves through gases?
It moves mainly by radiating through gases.
Why do sounds travel quickly through solids and liquids but not gases?
because the particles are closer together so the vibrations are able to pass through them faster where as in gasses the particles are very spaced out so it takes longer to pass through the gas
Can something go through the sun?
No because, it would burn up. But because its made up of gases and if it wasn't too hot, then yes, something can go through the Sun.
Are rainbows gases?
No, they aren't. Rainbows occur when lights go through rain droplets, like a prism.
What gas can go through water?
Any gas that does not substantially dissolve in or react with water can pass through it. This group includes air (except for its carbon dioxide content), all the noble gases, and all the hydrocarbon gases.
