Answer: Temperature is also a condition that affects the speed of sound. Molecules at higher temperatures have more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly. The speed of sound in room temperature air is 346 meters per second.

Explanation: so basically, yes!
