I read in an article that the term 'octave' can be used to measure the difference in Hertz between two sounds. An octave is the difference between one sound and another that has double (or half) the frequency. E.g. 2500Hz and 5000Hz differs one octave. The bands in some nifty car equalizers differ one third of an octave.
