This question doesn't quite make sense. A carat is a measure of the weight of the diamond, and measures nothing else at all. One carat = 200 mg or 1/5 of a gram. By 'shine' you probably mean brilliance; this can be measured by the return of light from the diamond. Clarity and colour both mean what they say, and don't really affect brilliance, which depends entirely on the cut. The cut which gives the most brilliance is known as the ideal cut.
