9 carat gold is an alloy of gold that is composed of 37.5% pure gold and 62.5% other metals. It is a popular choice for jewelry due to its affordability, durability, and strength. However, it contains less pure gold compared to higher carat gold alloys.
16 carat is 66.67% pure gold. More info about different qualities of gold, what is 916 gold, what is 22 carat gold etc. are available at below link.
Let me explain. Carats are used to specify how pure the gold is. 24 carat gold means, if you divide the gold bar into 24 parts, it has 24 parts of gold. That means 100% pure gold. 22 carat gold means, out of 24 parts of the gold, only 22 parts are gold and the rest can be silver/copper. So it is 91.6 % (22/24) pure. This is most widely used in jewellery making. Thats why many jewellers say their jewellery is made using 916kdm gold. Soverign (8gm) is the term used to measure the weight of the gold, be it 22 carat or 24 carat. I think the person is trying to tell you how much the bar will weigh when converted to 22 carat.
The word carat is used to denote the purity of the metal it is used on. Therefore, 18 carat shows that the metal (i.e gold) is 75% pure, while 22 carat shows that it is nearly 92% pure metal, ( 91.67% to be precise).So the difference is 17% in the purity of the metal.
