sound will travel through air (gas), the slowest. Because the molecule sin the air are farther apart.
Actually rubber it will travel through rubber the slowest. Air is second slowest then water and then granite was all I learned . Also Saltwater is faster then water becaus e there more salt so air goes through it faster.
Sound would not travel at all in a perfect vacuum. the lesser numbers of molecules sound waves have to interact with, the slower sound will travel. this is why sound travels much slower in air than it does in water.
The electromagnetic waves travel the slowest in the solids. The electromagnetic waves however travel the fastest in the gases or air.
through what material does an electromagnetic waves travel slowest?
rubber
stone
wood
Yes
The more closely packed molecules are in a medium, the faster sound travels through the medium, so sound travels slowest through a gas under low pressure.
sound cannot travel through a vacum
stone

Sound travels slowest through air because the particles in the air are spread apart.
Yes
Air.

Sound waves don't just travel the slowest in a vacuum, they don't travel at all. The reason is that sound waves, like all mechanical waves, need a medium to travel through.
Hot, because the molecules in the material are farther apart, at least in a gas
Sound travels fastest through iron and sound travels slowest through air!
Well sound would travel the slowest - i.e not at all - in a vacuum. However, for simplistic terms, rubber is actually the slowest that sound will travel through of common objects. I don't know but something like sodium at 3K might be a lot slower.
