18 Karat Gold is an alloy containing 75% gold with other metals 25% (usually silver or nickel) Normally the part of the solution with the greater percentage is the solvent. So in this case *Gold would be the solvent and silver or nickel or both would be the solute*
Because the 24k yellow gold is a soft metal and it is not good to made jewelry has to used other precious metal alloys to create durability. I think it's better to use the best alloys and not yellow gold scams metal to make jewelry's.
where carat is the carat rating of the material,massg is the mass of pure gold or platinum in the material, andmasst is the total mass of the material.
A carat is 1/24th of a part, so 14 carat gold is 14/24 (7/12ths) gold. 24 carat is pure gold. 14 carat works out as 58.3% gold, but by volume, the non-gold metals such as silver and copper add up to most of the product.
Eighteen carrot gold is eighteen parts ( 75 %)gold and 6 parts ( 25%)copper (yellow gold) OR 6 parts ( 25%)nickel (white gold). Twenty four carrot gold is pure gold.
18 ct gold is a mixture of 75 % of pure gold mixed with the alloy ie 25 % containing silver & copper . Percentage of silver is 15 % & copper is 10%
Shiny, Malleable and Doesn't rust!..... : |

it contains 18 parts of gold and 6 parts of other metals
Only 24K gold is pure. Everything else is part gold, part alloys. 14k Gold is 14 parts gold, 1o parts alloys. 18k is 18 parts gold, 6 parts alloys, to equal 24. 24k gold is not recommended for wearing, since it is very malleable.
no, it´s gold plated the gold used for plating is 18k drunk-crash.blogspot.com
Gold is an element. No alloys are found in any element.
You think probable to gold alloys; gold alloys have better mechanical properties than pure gold.
18K means 18 karats. Karats are how gold is measure. The number 18 means that the piece is 75% gold and 25% alloy. HGE is the logo of the company who made the piece. Not true! HGE stands for HEAVY GOLD ELECTROPLATE, which means the ring is PLATED with 18k gold and has no buyer value.
Well, 18k white gold it is alloys of different quality of precious metal that pass 18k acid test and magnet test ... Yellow gold alloys with Rhodium plated it is not white gold ... White gold its 18k+ white gold inside and white gold outside forever !
Real white gold 18k+ alloys its 100% pure solid color white gold formula; and dont' have 58mm of Rhodium plated ! Sincerely...
No is actually harder 24k gold is in he's pure form 18k gold have a % of alloys to make it harder.
Well, it is important to know any Oscar award it's 18k alloys with soft yellow gold metal.
.925 is a silver content. Sterling silver being 92.5% or higher silver content, the remaining alloys are 7.5%. Some alloys may slow tarnish, but there is no alloy that will eliminate the need for polishing. .750 or 18k gold wont tarnish but may change color with age depending on the remaining .250 alloys. If you are asking if 18k gold plating over a .925 sterling silver base will tarnish, the answer will be when the goldplating has worn off exposing the base metal to the elements, It will tarnish like any other silver.
Only 24K gold is pure. Everything else is part gold, part alloys. 14k Gold is 14 parts gold, 1o parts alloys. 18k is 18 parts gold, 6 parts alloys, to equal 24. 24k gold is not recommended for wearing, since it is very malleable.
Pure gold is made of gold, the element, (aurum) a metal that conducts electricity among other things. Various alloys of gold are designated 22K and 18K, for their proportion of gold to base metal (22/24ths or 18/24ths gold).
Because gold is so soft, it is mixed with other alloys to make it stronger. When you purchase 18K gold, you are purchasing gold that is 75% pure. The purest form of gold is 24K, which is considered 100% gold.
18K Gold: 18K Gold is 18/24ths, or three-quarters pure gold. Jewelry of this fineness is marked "18k" or "750," meaning 75 percent gold."
Well, depends on the alloys composition; one ounce of pure solid white gold formula 18k is the same that one ounce of yellow gold 18k ; but the only good different is that pure solid white gold alloys formula is better in durability; and is voluminous from a distance and very attractive up close... Yes white gold formula looks more in voluminous and saves money in your Bank account. The Price to buy today is right... This is my Best opinion for protect the interest for the Consumers...

what does 18K SAC mean in a ring
While 24K is solid gold and 18K gold has other alloys. These alloys are to increase the strength of the material and thus its durability. So if you are looking for jewellery then 18K would be best but if you are looking for investment then you should go for 24k gold.-Kathana jewellers24K is solid goldnapolean
