Respuesta :
The answer is solely based on the length of space between atoms. In gaseous mediums, atoms are generally quite far apart allowing waves to be undisrupted in the process. In solids and liquids, sound waves are trapped/diluted in the relatively close atom distances
Answer:
The speed of sound varies greatly depending upon the medium it is traveling through. The speed of sound in a medium is determined by a combination of the medium's rigidity (or compressibility in gases) and its density. The more rigid (or less compressible) the medium, the faster the speed of sound.
