âºâº Definition: Carat. Carat (mass) is a unit of mass for gems. It is equal to 0.2 gram. In the United States, carat almost exclusively means the unit of mass.
Since an ounce is 28.3 grams, a diamond has to weigh 141.5 carats to equal an ounce or 2264 carats to equal a pound. The term karat refers to a ratio and is used in describing the fineness of gold. Ten karat gold is 10/24ths (41%) pure gold. Fourteen karat gold is 14/24ths (58%).
