(a) might be reached
(b) would be reached
(c) will reached
(d) reach​

Answer 1

We will have coffee when the visitors reach here.

• In this case, we use the simple present form of the verb.

• All the other options are grammatically incorrect in the given context.

• The first part of the sentence is in the future perfect tense. Therefore, usage of future tense in the second part would be incorrect.

• Simple present tense is used to describe regular actions or some action that is taking place at the present moment.

Answer 2

Here is the correct answer along with the explanation:

We will have coffee when the visitors reach here.

Explanation

This is a conditional clause structure. When we use when clause, we use Simple Present Tense in the 'when clause'; the independent clause has future tense. But in the when clause or if clause we use simple present tense usually.

Example

I'll make myself a pizza when I get home tonight.
