The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Gunmetal**: Gunmetal is an alloy, which means it is a homogeneous mixture of different metals. 2. **Composition of Gunmetal**: The typical composition of gunmetal consists of approximately 88% copper, 10% tin, and 2% zinc. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option 1**: Iron and Tin. - Iron is not a component of gunmetal, so this option is incorrect. - **Option 2**: Copper and Tin. - Both copper and tin are part of the gunmetal composition, making this option correct. - **Option 3**: Iron, Brass, and Tin. - Iron is not a component, and brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, not a metal itself. Therefore, this option is incorrect. - **Option 4**: Iron, Zinc, and Titanium. - None of these are ingredients of gunmetal, making this option incorrect. 4. **Conclusion**: The correct ingredients of gunmetal are Copper and Tin, which are found in Option 2. **Final Answer**: The ingredients of gunmetal are Copper and Tin. ---
