The "loudness" with which you perceive a sound is determined by
-- the amplitude of the sound as it leaves the source
-- the distance between you and the source
-- obstacles or absorptive media in the path between the source and your ear
-- reflective surfaces near the path, leading to multipath interference, constructive
or destructive at the frequencies that comprise the sound
-- the relative amplitude response of your ear at the frequencies that comprise the sound.

loudness
The amplitude determines the loudness of a sound wave.
The loudness of sound is also known as volume.
Yes the loudness of a sound is called its intensity.

The amplitude of sound waves is what humans perceive as loudness.
Amplitude is the maximum displacement of a wave. The amplitude determine the loudness of the sound
The loudness of a sound depends on the amount of energy it takes to make the sound and the distance from the source of the sound.
it is how loud the sound is ^Smartass comment. The real answer: Loudness is determined by the intensity of sound waves.
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is primarily a psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. You can try to measure the sound pressure in decibels. Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness in sones - Wikipedia ", Loudness level in phon - Wikipedia ", and Subjectivly sensed loudness (volume), objectively measured sound pressure (voltage).
Units used to measure loudness are Sone (loudness N) and Phon (loudness level L). Scroll down to related links and look at "Loudness - Wikipedia" and "Sound level change and the change of the respective factor of volume and loudness"
