Detailed Solution

The IUPAC name of Co(en)2Cl2Cl is dichlorobis( ethylenediamine )cobalt(III) chloride.

It is a water-soluble violet diamagnetic solid. The two additional chlorides in this salt are bonded to the metal core, making them less reactive than the one chloride ion that is easily exchanged.

Hence, option B is correct.
