A Correct answer
Explanation

Sentence A is correct because it properly uses present simple 'If you boil water' to describe a general scientific fact, with 'it turns' also in present simple. Sentence B is incorrect because it incorrectly places 'will' in the if-clause - 'If you will boil water' is grammatically wrong in conditional structures.
