A rarefaction is a decrease in density or pressure in a medium, typically related to the spreading out of waves. In the context of sound waves, rarefaction is the region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are farther apart.
A region of increased pressure in a longitudinal wave is called a compression. Compressions occur when particles are closer together, resulting in higher pressure.
The crest of a wave is related to the concept of longitudinal waves. In longitudinal waves, particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Rarefaction, on the other hand, refers to the region of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread out.
A rarefaction is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread out, resulting in a decrease in pressure and density compared to the surrounding areas. It is the opposite of a compression, where particles are closer together and pressure is higher.
The intensity of a sound, which determines its loudness, is determined by the amount of energy a sound wave carries. This energy is influenced by the amplitude of the wave, with higher amplitudes corresponding to louder sounds.
Rarefaction in sound refers to the decrease in air pressure caused by a sound wave, leading to the expansion of air molecules. Reflection in sound occurs when a sound wave strikes a surface and bounces back, creating an echo or reverberation effect.
The spreading of molecules of sound. :)

i don't know but the last comment was very inappropriate.
Rarefraction is part of asound wave where the particles of the medium through which it is travelling are spread out.
A region of increased pressure in a longitudinal wave is called a compression. Compressions occur when particles are closer together, resulting in higher pressure.
Compression is the region of a longitudinal wave in which the density and pressure are at a maximum. Rarefaction is the region of a longitudinal wave in which the density and pressure are at a minimum.
