For example, A5 (the A above middle C) is assigned 440.0Hz, while A4 (the A below middle C) is assigned 220.0Hz because for every octave while going up in pitch, the frequency is doubled.
The tone of a sound is the characteristic quality of the sound that signals to someone's ears what type of sound it is.
For example, anyone who can hear can tell the difference between a distorted electric guitar strumming middle C and a flute blowing middle C because their tones are drastically distinguishable. The strummed electric guitar has a distorted, picked tone, while the blown acoustic flute has a "breathy", wind-like tone.
