Sound therefore need a {\bf{medium}} (substance) to pass on the vibrations ,so it can travel through solids, liquids \& gases but not through empty spaces. The speed of sound is usually faster through materials in which particles are closer together. Closer particles hit each other more easily and so the energy is more likely to be passed from one particle to the next .
