What is the reasoning that microwaves can travel through empty space as well as through air and food?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and as such they do not require any physical presence to aid passage, unlike sound waves which do require a medium through which to travel.
Which do not travel through empty space?
sound cannot travel through empty space.
Does heat travel through empty space by conduction?
No, there can't be conduction in empty space. Heat may travel through empty space through radiation, though.
Why can sound waves not travel through empty spuce?
Sound waves cannot travel through an empty space because an empty space is usually a vacuum.
Does radiation travel through an empty space-?
Radiation travels through empty space and substance.

Why does light travel faster through empty space than matter?
It doesn't travel faster through a vacuum. In our Universe there is no such thing as empty space.
What does light travel through best empty space or matter?

Why an electromagnetic wave can travel through empty space?
Because space is not empty, it has a Quantum Ether.
Can gamma rays travel through empty space?
Yes, gamma waves can Travel through empty space I am just kidding! I really don't know!
