    Solution:

    Concept- Alloys are the mixture of one or more elements or metals together to form a more ductile, malleable and high tensile metal.
    Alloys are a type of solid solution made by mixing two metals. Alloys are a homogeneous mixture and the particles are not visible to the naked eye and also do not scatter the light falling on them.
    Now, the composition of given alloys is-
     

    Sr. No

    Name of the Alloy

    Composition and its percentage (approx.) 

    Uses

      1      

    Gun Metal                                  

    Copper 88%, Tin 10%, Zinc 2%                                             

    For making canons, guns, matching parts

    2

    Bronze

    Copper 90%, Tin 10%

    Statues, coins, ornaments, utensils

    3

    Duralumin

    Aluminium 95%, Copper 4%, Manganese 0.5%

    In making aeroplane and ship, etc.

     Therefore, the common metal in alloys gunmetal, bronze and duralumin is copper.
    Hence, the correct option is (1).
