[CH2NH2] + is said to be a resonancestabilized cation.The method of formal charge definition is to state that it is a theoretical charge present on individual atoms of apolyatomic molecule. The formal charge on an atom exists because of unfulfilled orbital configuration.It is theoretical and considered fake as the real, physical charge on a molecule or ion is distributed throughout its structure. However, its calculation is pretty essential as it leads us to make several predictions. The lesser the formal charge on a particular possible structure of a molecule, the more stable it is. Therefore, it is more likely that this structure will dominate a chemical reaction.Formal charge = [number of valence electrons] – [electrons in lone pairs + 1/2 the number of bonding electrons]For CH22NH2Formal charge Carbon= (4-0)+1/2(8) =0 i.e. formally neutralformal charge on nitrogen = (5-0)+1/2(8) = +1 i.e. formally charged.Otherresonating structureshowsCarbon formal charge = +1Nitrogen formal charge = 0.Therefore, [CH2NH2] + is said to be aresonancestabilized cation.To learn more aboutresonating structurebrainly.com/question/23287285#SPJ4...
