White gold is made by adding a white metal to yellow gold (like palladium or nickel). The resulting color may not be entirely white and may include various off-white shades. Rhodium plating is used to make "white" gold look truly white.
It is obtained by exploding gold into tiny pieces and then inside the gold there are little spots. Those little spots are rhodium. You want to shave off the gold and combine the spots together. Then you want to put them in to a bowl and put it in the microwave. Then you put in to the freezer until it freezes.
White gold is yellow gold that is mixed with other metals and it has more zinc and it should be 18k which has 75% of gold. You can observe your bracelet over time to see if it fades as that is one of the signs of being fake.
14k Ch gold refers to 14 karat gold that has been alloyed with other metals to create a white gold color. The "Ch" likely stands for "Champagne" or "Chinatown," indicating the origin or quality of the gold.

Rhodium is a coating that is put onto most silver tone jewelry to give it its color and shine. It is found on silver, platinum, and most popularly on white gold. White gold gets it full white color from rhodium plating. Rhodium can sometimes come off of a piece of jewelry, in this instance it can be replaced by a jeweler.
NO, once it is yellow...you CANNOT change it to white. * Yellow gold is made by mixing pure gold with alloys such as copper and zinc. * Rose or pink gold is made using a mix of pure gold with alloy metals including copper. The copper provides the rose-reddish color. * White gold is an alloy of gold and some white metals such as nickel and palladium. The only way you can change the color of your ring is to have it plated. This method is not permanent as the coating will wear off through normal wear and tear. However, almost all white gold rings today are rhodium plated and there is no reason you cannot rhodium plate a yellow gold ring. The difference is that the contrast will be much greater as the plating starts to wear, so more frequent replating will be necessary. In the case of jewelry that receives little wear, like a pin or a broach, rhodium plating may last indefinitely. Sure, yellow gold could be turn in white color and we have yellow gold rings and white gold rings. It is common for jeweler to make a 18k white gold ring by yellow gold. He will add 25% other metals, like nickle which would make the yellow color turn into white. That comes a 18k white gold ring.
Its the same price they just put color There's no such thing as "pure" white gold. Pure gold is 24K and is a bright buttery yellow. It is unalloyed, so there's nothing to change its color. The highest karat white gold can be is 18k (75% gold) because white alloys have to be added to whiten its color. Even so, it will have a dull yellow tinge. White gold is commonly plated with rhodium, a metal from the platinum family, to make it more silver, but as this plating wears off the yellow tinge underneath will show and it will need to be re-plated.
Gold plating a coin is legal but is considered an "altered" coin, and cannot be used or put into circulation.

They put Gold plating on him over the circuits.
Five cents. The gold plating someone put on a regular nickel destroyed any collector's value it had.

Well, the best way to test your silver is with silver acid, if in the acid test come very color red it is silver. But you can test with 18k acid for testing gold metal, if in the stone the line change blue color it is silver. But if you put silver acid in other white metal can be white gold and you see the line in the stone change yellow their have yellow gold inside or if it is red it is copper ! Wake up ! can be mix copper, yellow gold with Rhodium Plated. that in today's market their call commun artificial white gold plated! Sincerely: Profectional jewelry's!
Yes, if you put the specs into google, you will find it is called a Professional flute and it's expense is due to the Gold plating.
It's not gold, just gold-plated. The plating doesn't add to its value. It was put on by a private company and the coin was sold as an "instant collectible" but the market for them virtually disappeared once the Bicentennial celebrations were over.
These are some metals that are more rare than gold: Ruthenium, Palladium, Platinum*, Rhenium, Iridium, Rhodium, Osmium *Platinum is actually more abundant than gold, but because there are far less minable sources, it is considered to be rarer than gold. These are more expensive than gold: Platinum, Rhodium I would consider human life/soul more precious than monitary value. Some may also consider memories or experiences high valued. Pretty much anything you can't put a price on.
