Can waves transfer energy through liquids and solids but not through gases or empty space?

Some waves can transfer energy only through liquids and solids, but not through gases or vacuum. Some waves, like sound waves, can transfer energy through gases, liquids and solids but not through vacuum. And some waves, notably electromagnetic waves, can transfer energy through vacuum as well as matter.


How sounds wave transmitted?

Sound is mechanical energy. It's a vibration or oscillation, and it is transmitted as a wave of pressure and displacement. Like all mechanical waves, sound requires a medium through which to travel, and the source transfers mechanical energy into the medium. Solids and fluids (liquids or gasses) serve as mediums for the transmission of sound waves.
