Answer:
Definition of The Unreal Conditionals:
These conditionals refer to hypothetical conditions which have no probability to happen in the past, present or future but express what could/ might have happened.
the open hypothetical conditional statement: This refers to a possible future situation which depends on on another possible future situation. The verb of the main clause uses the present conditional tense (would + infinitive, or could +infinitive);
Difference between unreal and hypothetical conditionals
In traditional grammar, a sentence with a conditional clause with a true situation is a real conditional, and an untrue situation is an unreal condition, a hypothetical condition or an imaginary present, past or future.
