Explanation:

The amount of substance in of some stuff in a solution is often referred to as its $concentration$ $"concentration"$ ......to quote a dictionary......

$the relative amount of a particular substance contained within$ $"the relative amount of a particular substance contained within"$
$a solution or mixture or in a particular volume of space...$ $"a solution or mixture or in a particular volume of space..."$

Ways of expressing concentration for solution include $molarity$ $"molarity"$ ..

$Molarity = \frac{Moles of solute}{Volume of solution}$ $"Molarity"="Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution"$ ,
