Condition       \Rightarrow[\mathrm{B}]=4[\mathrm{~A}]
For A            \mathrm{A} \underset{15 \min }{\stackrel{\mathrm{t} 1 / 2}{\longrightarrow}} \frac{\mathrm{A}}{2}
For B           \quad 4 \mathrm{~A} \underset{\frac{t}{15} \mathrm{~min}}{\longrightarrow} 2 \mathrm{~A} \frac{\mathrm{t}_{1 / 2}}{5 \mathrm{~min}} \quad \mathrm{~A} \frac{\mathrm{t} / 2}{5 \mathrm{~min}} \mathrm{~A} / 2
