The speed of sound depends on the physical characteristics of the stuff it's moving through,

sound waves are the mechanical motion of the particles of material it's moving through,

and sound needs physical stuff to move through.

The speed of light depends on the electrical characteristics of the stuff it's moving through,

light waves are electric and magnetic fields, and light doesn't need any stuff to move through.

The speed of light in vacuum is about 882,000 times the speed of sound in air.
