Is this chain solid gold or plated?

It is solid 14K yellow gold, stamped 14K, not gold plated or filled. That means the color runs through the metal rather than sitting on a coating.

Will a 1.65 mm rope chain hold a pendant?

A light pendant is fine, but the chain is thin. A heavy pendant can pull the links and cause stretching, so keep pendants small.

It is 18 inches, which typically falls at the collarbone or just below. That length works on its own or layered with a shorter chain.

Rope chains are less prone to tangling than fine cable chains, but the twist can kink if it is pulled or stored loosely. Hang it or lay it flat.

Wipe it with a soft cloth and store it dry and separate from other chains. Take it off before swimming or showering to keep the gold bright.

Yes, if you want a simple solid-gold chain. It is light and plain, so it layers easily, but expect a delicate look rather than a statement piece.
