CN- is a triple bond. This should be derived using formal charge and the amount of available valence electrons. The confusion comes from whether it is a double or triple bond. check on you tube for how to draw ions using formal charge. What you must remember is that elements in period 2 want to have a complete octet and the only stable configuration with a complete octet is using a triple bond.
