Answer:

The correct option is option A.

Explanation:

18-karat gold is not a pure substance because it is composed of a variable composition, so 18-karat gold is a mixture. The composition of 18 karat is not pure gold but a mixture of gold and some other metals. Since it is not pure gold hence it is cheaper than 24 karat gold. The purity of gold is given in karats. 24 karat gold is the pure gold while 18 karat gold is a mixture of gold the composition of other metals.
