Sound needs a medium to travel through, which means there must be particles present for it to travel (it cannot travel in a vacuum). Sound is formed by a vibrating object, and the vibrations are passed along the particles until they reach your ear, where they make your eardrum vibrate etc. This works in solid, liquid, and gases, as there are particles in all of them to pass along the vibrations. It works fastest in solids, as the particles are closest together, so can pass the vibrations on quicker. In liquids, the particles are still close, but less tightly packed, so sound travels a little slower than in solids. In gases, the sound travels even slower than in liquids, as the particles are very spaced out, so it takes a while to pass on the vibrations.
Hope that helped!
Sound can travel through any state of matter, including solids, liquids, and gases. The speed of sound can vary depending on the medium it is traveling through, with sound traveling fastest through solids and slowest through gases.
Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel as it relies on the vibration of particles within the medium to propagate. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to interact with and transmit energy, which is why sound cannot travel through it.
A vacuum is a region empty of matter through which sound cannot travel. In a vacuum, there are no particles to transmit sound waves, so no sound can be heard.
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum, such as in outer space. "Sound" refers to waves of compression which travel through matter. When there is no matter, there can be no such waves, and therefore no sound.
Sound waves can travel through any matter- liquid, gas or solids. The denser the matter, the faster the sound travels. It cannot travel through vacuum- a vacuum is an absence of matter.
Sound waves travel through the three states of matter (gas, liquid and solid) by vibrations.

there is no air in a vaccum. and sound needs air for the sound waves to travel through.

Sound waves travel through matter. Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases which is a form of matter. Sound waves will travel through our atmosphere, even if there is no human ear to receive it.

I'm pretty sure they can travel through matter It depends on the matter, but many materials will transmit sound.

A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave, can only travel through matter because it requires a medium to propagate. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space.
Sound travels through matter as transverse pressure waves.
