Examine the following two structures for the anilinium ion and choose the correct statement from the ones given below:

Options

A. II is not an acceptable canonial structure because carbonism ions are less stable than ammonium ions
B. II is not an accptable canonical structure because it is non-aromatic
C. II is not an acceptable canonical structure because the nitrogen has 10 valence electrons
D. II is an acceptable canonical structure

Explanation

In given resonating structures, structure II is not an acceptable canonical structure because the nitrogen has ten valence electrons.
