How do you weigh gold at home?

Answer 1

1. Use a small balance scale ( like the one at the post office or the hardware store by the grass seed.)

2. Use a yardstick, balance it in the middle, then to weigh one pound of gold, put a 1 pound (known)weight on one end, add gold to the other side until the sides are level.

Then you have measured out exactly one pound of gold!

1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams

Answer 2

To calculate the scrap of weighted gold first organize it by karat. To test higher karat quantities use the acid test. Weight the karats using a kitchen scale and convert from ounces to grams.
