Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

Formal charge = valence - (no. of bonded electron and no. of non-bonded electron)

In the B structure :

For : No. of valence electron =  

           No. of non-bonded electron =  

           No. of bonds =  

For : Valence electron =  

            non-bonded  =  

            No. of bond =  

Final charge =
