Answer:

The speed of sound depends on the medium thru which it travels in contrast to light (electromagnetic) which can travel thru a vacuum.

The speed of sound will depend on the density of the air thru which it travels - the density  of air is particularly affected by

humidity - water vapor in the air contributes to less density

temperature - warmer is less dense

motion of air - if the air is not motionless the speed will be affected
