Answer:
When the medium is dense, the molecules in the medium are closely packed which means that the sound travels faster. Therefore, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.

Answer:
When the medium is dense, the molecules in the medium are closely packed which means that the sound travels faster. Therefore, the speed of sound increases as the density of the medium increases.
Explanation:
Two main factors affect the speed of sound: the material that makes up the medium—such as air or water—and the temperature. If we know the medium and the temperature, however, we can predict the speed of sound.
