Answer:

Out of the options given in the question, the correct one would be, option A.

The tenses in the sentence are incorrect.

This is so because, " He will be gone by the time you arrived"

There is a combination of future continuous and past tense. It completely disrupts the sentence.

Explanation:

The correct answer for the sentence should be,

He would be gone by the time you would arrive.

Answer:

Tense is wrong in the given sentence 'He will be gone by the time you arrived.'

Explanation:

The correct sentence is : He will be gone by the time you arrive. Here, arrived is replaced with the arrive. The speaker is talking in present moment about the future event/moment. Arrived is used when you speak about the past event.

Hence, the sentence has to be in future tense and not in past tense. Arrived is the past tense. Others options are incorrect as there is no problem with the sentence structure, preposition and conjunction.
