Reflection of a wave is the change in direction of a wave front at an interface between two different media so that the wave front returns into the medium from which it originated. The Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves.
When Sound wave traveling in a medium strikes the surface separating the two media,
A part of incident wave is reflected back into initial medium obeying ordinary laws of reflectionwhile the rest is partly absorbed and partly refracted or transmitted into second medium.
When a Longitudinal sounds wave strikes a flat surface, sound is reflected in a coherent manner provided that the dimension of the reflective surface is large compared to the wavelength of the sound.

Answer:
When sound travels in a given medium, it strikes the surface of another medium and bounces back in some other direction, this phenomenon is called the reflection of sound. The waves are called the incident and reflected sound waves.
