So site and situation; They both refer to the location of a place but in different ways:
Site refers to the physical and cultural features of place, independent of the places around it. For example, the coordinates, characteristics like ethnic diversity, climate, etc. Things about that place specifically.
Meanwhile situation describes a place's relationship to other places around it. Like where it is in relation to somewhere else. Example: San Francisco is east of the Pacific Ocean and west of the city of Oakland.
Okay so for concentration and density:
Concentration describes where things are in a unit of space, like whether they are clustered or spread out. For example objects in an area have higher concentration when they are closer together. Concentration doesn't really depend on the number of objects, just their positioning.
Density, however, is the frequency of an object in a certain area. Basically, how many in that area. Doesn't matter if they're clustered or spread out, it's just describing how many. So if one area has a higher density than another area, it means more objects are in that area.
I hope that helps!
