HEY JOKER -WAIT!!  Don't be fooled by the term"dramatic".  Dramatic irony is when the audience know something that the characters in the play do not.  Tybalt killing Mercutio is a well-known example of situational irony because Tybalt intended to kill Romeo, who later kills Tyblat to avenge Mercutio. I am absolutely certain of this question, as i have encountered it before! :)
