Formula of formal charge:
F.C = Number of electron N should have ( = 5) - [2 x no. of lone pairs + no. of bond pairs]
Based on the formula, we can get the forrmal charges of all N atom present here (numbering from left),
Structure | F.C (N1) | F.C (N2) | F.C (N3) | F.C (N4) | F.C (N5) |
1 | -1 | +1 | 0 | +1 | 0 |
2 | -2 | +1 | +1 | +1 | 0 |
3 | 0 | +1 | -1 | +1 | 0 |
4 | -1 | +1 | +1 | +1 | -1 |
5 | 0 | +1 | 0 | +1 | -1 |
6 | 0 | +1 | +1 | +1 | -2 |
The idea is, more distributed the formal charge is, the more is the contribution of the resonating structure. Also the most likely structures are those, which have less number of formal charge in distributive manner.
