Your question is not clear. Is it referring to Diamond carat or Gold karat. This is because both have different meaning.
While, Carat refers to weight of diamond (or gemstones), Karat refers to purity of gold.
Check the link.
The gold content of 10 karat gold is 41.7% gold and the gold content of 24 karat gold is 100%.
pure gold is 24, so 9 carat means 9/24 of the material is gold
pure gold is 24, so 9 carat means 9/24 of the material is gold
18 carat is better than 14 carat. 24 carat is pure gold. 18 out of 24 is 75% gold the rest is made up of silver.
24 carat jewellery is pure gold whilst 9 carat jewelery is not. It is still valuable just contains less gold. The advantage to 9ct jewelery is that it would be harder wearing.
24 Carat == pure ( ~100% )Therefore 9 Carat 0.375 pure.So to find the weight of gold in a 9 Carat thing, weight in grams X 0.375 == pure gold grams.easy, right? ;-)
different materials are mixed with the gold 18 carat is 75 percent gold
there are 24 parts that make up pure gold. so 9 carats is 9 parts gold and 15 parts of another material so 9 parts gold to 24 parts is 37.5% gold. were 18 carat is 18 parts gold to 24 parts of another material or 75% gold. thus the difference is in the amount of gold in the ring. there is also a difference in the color of the gold pieces. the 9 carat gold is lighter than the 18 carat.
The numbers are probably an indication of the purity of the gold. Pure gold is 24 carat but 22 carat, 18 carat, 14 carat and 9 carat are all common.
Yes 9-carat gold has a relatively low gold content which means it is less soft than pure gold (24-carat) and therefore more durable. 9-carat gold jewellery is very good for everyday use.
916kdm gold is 24 carat gold
You can't. The carat value is it's purity.
