Percent concentration could mean many things...
MOLARITY is defined as the moles of solute per unit volume of solution so 5 moles of NaCl in one liter of solution would be 5M (molar) NaCl solution.
(Note: Solution is the solvent and solute combined, usually the solid is added and then the solution is filled to a certain line once the solid has dissolved.)
MOLALITY is defined as the moles of solute per kilogram of solvent (NOT solution). So 5 moles of NaCl in one kilogram of water makes 5 mol/kg NaCl. (sometimes the symbol m is used for molality but is often confused with the unit of meters).
For other types of "percent concentration" of solutions check:

A cursory glance seemed to confirm the accuracy of the information.
Water with a salt concentration of about 3.5% is typically found in seawater.
Yes, one solution can have a greater concentration in terms of weight percent while having a lower concentration in terms of molarity. Weight percent is based on the mass of solute relative to the total mass of the solution, while molarity is based on the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. If the solute has a high molar mass, a solution can have a high weight percent but a lower molarity compared to another solution with a lower weight percent but a solute of lower molar mass.
To calculate the percent weight/volume (w/v) concentration, divide the mass of solute (CaCl2) by the volume of solution and multiply by 100. First, convert 240 mL to L by dividing by 1000 (240 mL = 0.24 L). The concentration is (1.20 g / 0.24 L) x 100 = 5% w/v.
To convert 5.9 milligrams per gram into percent concentration, you would need to divide the milligrams by 10 (since there are 1000 milligrams in a gram) to get 0.59. Then, multiply by 100 to get the percentage: 0.59 grams per gram is equal to 59% concentration.
The answer is 5,82 %.
The percent ionization of ammonia depends on the concentration and the dissociation constant of the substance. Can you please provide the concentration for a more accurate calculation?

0.03 percent, obviously!
21 percent.
Presumably, 0.6 percent.
Calculating concentration of a chemical solution is a basic skill all students of chemistry must develop early in their studies. What is concentration?
Percent per mass example: uranium concentration in granite is approh. 4 mg/kg. Percent per volume: uranium concentration in ocean water is approx. 4 micrograms/L.
As you increase the concentration of the solution, the concentration of H+ does not change. Meaning, the concentration ionized does not change. Just the original concentration increases. Since percent ionization = (concentration ionized)/(original concentration) , and the original concentration is increased, the percent ionization therefore decreases.
0.084%

The cell will lose water by osmosis because water will move from an area of higher concentration (inside the cell, 90% water) to an area of lower concentration (outside the cell, 80% water). This movement of water will continue until the concentrations of water inside and outside the cell reach equilibrium.
The concentration of oxygen in water is 88,88 %.
