The density of 24 carat gold is approximately 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter. The hardness of gold on the Mohs scale is about 2.5 to 3.
Its all down to purity. 10 carat gold is about 44% pure gold while 9 carat is slightly less. The purest gold is 24 carat which is 100% gold. Pure gold wears very quickly so most jewelry is mixed with harder wearing metals to create an alloy-so many parts gold to so many parts other metal.
24 carats is pure gold so a 14 carat chain weighing 10 grams contains [(14/24) X 10] grams. This is equal to 5.8333333 recurring grams of gold.

Usually k is karat or carat Pure gold is 24 carat so 10 k is 10/24 pure i.e. 10 parts are gold and 14 parts are not.
A carat is one fifth of a gram when measuring the weight of precious stones, When applied to gold it is the weight proportion of the alloy where 24 carats is the total. So 24 carat gold is pure 100% gold. Anything less is an alloy with some other metals (usually copper, silver, or nickel but many other metals can be mixed in).Gold has such a high density (19.4) that if you mix equal volumes of copper (density 7.2) and gold you get 18 carat gold.
This is an alloy with 41,66 % gold.
