Option B: ionic Mg Br2.

Because the depression of freezing point is proportional to the number of moles of solute per kg of solvent, and given that 1 mol Mg Br2 dissociates into three moles of ions, the solution of Mg Br2 will have more moles of particles and exhibit the largest reduction in the freezing point.
