The word you are looking for is karat. This measures the pureness of gold while a carat measures the weight of a precious stone. 24 karat gold is pure gold regardless of weight.

How many grams in 24 carat gold?

As many or as few as you want. Gold is 24 carat gold when it is pure gold. It's 100% gold and is un-alloyed with any other metals. Pure gold is a bit soft, and you can leave a mark in it with a thumb nail. We often put a bit of something in it to "make it harder" so we can make rings and other jewelry. That's the carat standard. We really don't measure how many grams are in 24 carat gold, as the phrase '24 carat gold' only tells us we have pure gold - not how much gold.
