When weighing gold it is the 'density' which is measured. Gold has a much higher density compared to any other metals used to alloy with it to create varying karats & colors of gold jewelry. The density of gold is always 10.18 troy ounces/in3 of pure gold."
Density is a physical property of matter as each compound & element has a unique density associated with it. Density is also defined in a qualitative manner as the measure of the relative "heaviness" of objects with a constant volume.
Density is a fundamental concept in the sciences. Density is used quite often in identifying minerals & rocks since the density of substances rarely changes significantly. The best example, gold will have a density of 19.3 g/cm3; if any mineral has a density other than that, it isn't gold.
