B Correct answer
Explanation

The error is in part (B). The phrase 'will have lend' contains two errors: 'will have' is incorrect for Type 2 conditional (should be 'would'), and 'lend' is the base form where past participle 'lent' is needed. The correct sentence should be 'If I had a briefcase, I would lend it to her' (Type 2). The combination 'will have lend' is grammatically incoherent.
