To identify gold take a hammer or something hard and hit the gold. If it shatters it is fake if it turns flat it is gold.

Yes. Jewellers can easily test the purity and identify the caratage of the gold. 24 carat is pure gold and usually 22 carat or even 18 and 16 carat gold are used to make ornamental jewellery 24 carat gold is not used to make jewellery. Gold in its purest form is not malleable enough to be mouled into jewellery.
One can tell if something is 24k gold by poking it with a sharp object. Gold is a soft metal, and the higher the karat the softer the metal, therefore if it makes a dent or leaves a mark, then the gold is 24k. Also, 24k gold is much more yellow, so, the color can help to identify 24k gold. And finally, bringing it to a jeweler to get it appraised will help to determine if it is 24k gold.

Place your gold jewelry near a magnet. Real gold is not magnetic; if your jewelry pulls toward the magnet, it is fake.
Not pure.
If you identify gold color, remove unnecessary parts, grind (IC's) and soak in 10% HCL, then add a little hydrogen peroxide, this will lift the gold
There often are stamps in jewelry which identify the jewler, the alloy (how pure the gold is) the date (year) of manucature, and the autority under which the gold was checked.
