English Tenses

Which sentence contains an error in a conditional sentence with future tense?

A If it rains, we will cancel the trip.

B If she studies, she will pass.

C If it will rain, we will cancel the trip.

D If he works hard, he will succeed.

In conditional and time clauses starting with 'if', never use 'will'. Use simple present in the if-clause: 'If it rains, we will cancel the trip.'

Reference: English Grammar Guide , Page 9

If-clause + future → use simple present in the if-clause, not will.
