Electical impedance of air is just under 377 Ohms. It depends on humidity and other factors. Dry air is close to free space.

Scroll down to related links and look at "Characteristic impedance of free space ".

The electrical impedance of air is typically very high, ranging from around 10^15 to 10^18 ohms. This high impedance is due to the low concentration of charged particles present in air, making it a very poor conductor of electricity.

What is the difference between characteristic impedance and intrinsic impedance?

I believe intrinsic impedance is more tied to the medium, thus is defined in terms of magnetic and electric permeability and electrical conductivity, while characteristic impedance is a "wider" look at the impedance. For example, you can calculate the intrinsic impedance of a 18 awg copper wire, or air, or a vacuum. If you wanted to use coax cable with an 18 awg core, you would be looking at the characteristic impedance, not the intrinsic impedance of the copper that will be carrying the waveform.

What means Impedance?

To get all the audio voltage from a source to a target without loss you need voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is at least ten times higher then the output impedance.An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.


Who is ohm?

Ohm is the SI unit of electrical impedance (AC) or the electrical resistance (DC), named after Georg Ohm. Not Ohms!
