   The answer is not clear because you have not stated the properties to be considered! One difference is that sound waves can bend or go around obstructions, but light waves cannot as they generally travel in straight lines unless refracted or reflected; a second difference is that white light is visible to the human eye, but sound waves are not usually seen but their effects may be visible [example is a loudspeaker cone moving in and out at low frequencies].
