What are the differences between concentration and density?

Question

Accepted Answer

Basis of differentiation

Concentration

Density

Definition

Concentration is the ratio between amount and volume of a substance

Density is the ratio between mass and volume of a substance

Dependent factors

Concentration depends on the amount of matter and what compound is present

Density depends on the amount of matter within a given volume

Nature of property

Is always a homogenous property

Can be homogenous or heterogenous depending on the compound

Substance

Can define concentration for a solution

Can define density for all three phases of matter

Units

SI unit is mol/m3

SI unit is kg/m³
