Is 24 carat gold pure called pure gold?

Answer 1

Carat is a unit of purity for gold. It shows how many parts of gold and how many parts of other metals in a gold jewelry. A piece of gold that has 24 carats is pure gold.

Answer 2

A karat signifies how pure gold is and the higher the karat, the more gold there is. Pure gold, which is 100%, is too soft to use so it often has other metals mixed in to make more durable.
