A carat is a measurement of mass so finding the volume (V) is dependent on the density (ρ).
1 carat = 0.2 gm
4.11 carat * 0.2 gm = 0.822 gm
V = m/ρ
A web search indicates naturally occurring diamonds have a density range of 3.15–3.53 gm/cm3.
If diamond density is provided in your text book, I would suggest using that.
Using ρ = 3.51 gm/cm3 as the density,
V = 0.822gm/3.51 gm/cm3 = 0.234cm3
