How to convert carats to grams?
To convert a measurement in carats (ct) to grams (g), we multiply the value by the conversion factor 0.2.
g = ct × 0.2
The carat unit of weight (exactly 0.2 grams) is used to weigh gemstones such as diamonds, and should not be confused with the 'karat' used to measure gold purity, which is a scale from 0 to 24 rather than a unit of weight.
| Carats (ct) | Grams (g) |
|---|---|
| 1.00 | 0.2000 |
| 5.00 | 1.00 |
| 10.00 | 2.00 |
| 50.00 | 10.00 |
| 100.00 | 20.00 |
