Solubility is a term to describe the presence of two or more substances that form a homogeneous mixture. These substances can be solids, liquids or gases. Typically, a solid (which is called the solute) dissolved in a liquid (called the solvent) is the most common solution (example of solubility).
Concentration is a term only used to determine the amount of substances present in a solution. It is typical to talk about the concentration of the substance which has the lesser amount(s) and not the substance which has the greatest amount in the solution (which is often the solvent).
Concentrations can be given in several different units. This could be as grams per milliliter or moles per liter or even percent of the total solution.

Solubility And Concentration

Concentration indicates the numerical amount of a solute dissolved in a solvent to form a solution. Solubility is the qualitative measure of the concentration of a saturated solution. Thus, a "high" solubility may be about 100 g solute/liter, which a "very low" solubility may be about 0.1 g solute/liter.

concentration:
some solute dissolves in certain amount of solvent, there is no specific value, you can have low concentration (not much solute in solvent), or high concentration (a lot solute in solvent)
e.g. 10 g NaCl in 100 mL water, 15 g NaCl in 75 mL water, etc. so long as it doesn't exceed the solubility.
solubility:
it is defined as the maximum amount of solute could dissolve in a specific amount of solvent under ambient conditions. e.g 35.6 g NaCl in 100 g water (a saturated NaCl solution)
if over 35.6 g NaCl in 100 g water is called supersaturated

Concentration is focusing your entire consciousness on one point or one thing. So concentration is a state of subjective consciousness. In meditation the consciousness is not focused on anything, in other words it simply is. So meditation is a state of objective consciousness. Concentration is the first step of the meditation. In other words after practicing concentration one can easily practice meditation. Both are not contradictory to each other.

There is only one difference that I know of:
Concentration is measured in units of volume, and
Solubility is measured by the temperature of the substance.
