Answer:

Concentration is the ratio of solute in a solution to either solvent or total solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concentration basically means how much of something is in a given area. A gas, for example, can be highly concentrated in a given area, but a liquid cannot be concentrated and always takes up the same amount of space.

Answer:

The concentration of a solution means the amount of solute present in a given or specific amount of solution. (presented in percentage)

For example, the Normal Saline solution normally used for different scientific experiment or so. The saline water has 0.9% of salt (sodium chloride). This is the concentration of solution of salt.
