Which of these words is a concrete noun safety?

The word safety is an abstract noun, not a concrete noun.

Here's why:

* Concrete nouns refer to things that can be touched, seen, smelled, tasted, or heard. Examples: chair, book, tree, water.

* Abstract nouns refer to ideas, qualities, concepts, or feelings that cannot be physically touched. Examples: happiness, courage, love, justice.

Safety is a concept or feeling. You can't physically touch or hold safety.
