    There are several things it could be, one is that the supply stop under the sink could have a loose washer and is vibrating when the water is on. It also could be the valve that diverts the water to the spray.
    There is also a chance that the noise is not coming from the faucet itself but maybe from a commode valve that is not turning off good and when you open the sink faucet it makes the commode valve vibrate.
