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.
Percent concentration is a way to express the amount of a substance present in a solution as a percentage of the total solution. It is calculated by dividing the amount of the solute by the total amount of the solution and multiplying by 100. Percent concentration is commonly used in chemistry to describe the strength of a solution.

What kind of water has a salt concentration of about 3.5 percent?
Water with a salt concentration of about 3.5% is typically found in seawater.
A solution contains 1.20 g of CaCl2 and 240 mL of solution what is the percent w-v concentration of the solution?
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.
How do you convert 5.9 milligram per gram into percent concentration?
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.
What is the concentration as percent of a solution which contains 160 g of solute in 2.75L of solution?
The answer is 5,82 %.
What if a semipermeable membrane has a 2 percent salt solution on one side a 15 percent salt solutionWhat will mostly occur?
Osmosis of water from a low concentration of salt to a high concentration
What is the percent ionization of ammonia at this concentration?
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?
What element has the greatest percent of the concentration and what is the percent?
gold at 13%
What is the highest concentration 0.003 percent 0.01 percent or 0.03 percent?
0.03 percent, obviously!
What is the concentration of oxygen in air?
21 percent.
Dilute a solution which has an initial concentration of 10 percent down to 2 percent?
Calculating concentration of a chemical solution is a basic skill all students of chemistry must develop early in their studies. What is concentration?
What is the difference between 3.8 percent sodium citrate concentration and 3.2 percent?
Presumably, 0.6 percent.
What is percent by mass and percent by volume?
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.
Why does the percent ionization of acetic acid increase as the concentration of the solution decreases?
As the concentration of the solution decreases, there are fewer acetic acid molecules in the solution, resulting in less competition for water molecules. This allows more acetic acid molecules to ionize, increasing the percent ionization. Additionally, Le Chatelier's principle states that a decrease in concentration of the solution will shift the equilibrium towards the formation of more ions, further promoting ionization.
How many percent concentration of hcl is 1normal?
0.084%
What is the folic acid concentration in pawpaw?
23 percent
What is the percent oxygen concentration if the water temperature is 10 degrees celsius and the oxygen concentration is 12 ppm?
The concentration of oxygen in water is 88,88 %.
If you have a cell with water concentration of 90 percent and solute concentration of 10 percent and you place it into a solution that is 80 percent water concentration and 20 percent solute concentra?
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.
