(N/A) Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in $1 \ L$ of solution. Since volume depends on temperature and changes with it,molarity also changes with temperature.
On the other hand,concentration terms like mass percentage,$ppm$,mole fraction,and molality are based on mass-by-mass relationships.
Since mass does not change with temperature,these concentration terms remain independent of temperature variations.
