Why is 1 molar aqueous solution more concentrated than a 1 molal solution?

Solution
1m molar concentrated:
Molar concentration is a determination of a chemical species concentration in a solution, particularly a solute's concentration, in terms of the amount of substance per unit volume of solution.
Reason for 1m more concentrated:
Because 1 molar solution contains 1 mole of solute in 1 litre of the solution, which includes both solute and solvent, it is more concentrated than 1 molar solution. Consequently, less than 1000 grams of water serve as the solvent mass.
A solution is made up of a solute (a small amount of a chemical) and a solvent (the chemical that is present in bulk).
They are unaffected by states such as solid, liquid, gas, and so on.
Molality(m) and molarity(M) are the two ways to express the concentration of a solute.
Molality is defined as the number of moles of a substance present in one kilogram of the substance. m=(given mass of the solute molar mass of solute)(1000 mass of solvent in gram) in mathematics, where m represents molality
Molarity(M) calculates the number of moles of solvent present in 1 liter (1000ml) of solution. Molarity is defined in mathematics
Because molality is proportional to the mass of the solvent, it is noted that the mass of the solute, in this case, water, is less than 1000gm.
As a result, a 1 molar aqueous solution must have 1 mole of solute in fewer than 1000 g of solvent.
In a molal solution, 1 mole of solute must be present in 1000 grams of solvent.
As a result, the concentration in a 1 molal aqueous solution will be higher than in a 1 molar aqueous solution.
