+ 5 is the formal charge on nitrogen element on a nitrate species.
CN is a compound of Carbon and Nitrogen, known as cyanide. It is a negative ion, properly written CN-
+1
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.
the cyanide ion has a single negative charge, CN-

Cyanide is CN-1.
+1
Nitric acid, HNO3 has covalent bonds. Two nitrogen-oxygen single bonds, one nitrogen-oxygen double bond and an oxygen-hydrogen single bond. There is a formal +1 charge on the nitrogen center, and a formal -1 charge on the single-bonded oxygen without the hydrogen atom.
NO is nitrogen monoxide or nitric oxide. CN- is cyanide ion
CN means charge nurse.
Because, if the atom is being created there will such time that it will destroy, n. There are no lone pairs of electrons left. Thus, using the definition of formal charge, hydrogen has a formal charge of zero (1- (0 + ½ × 2)) and nitrogen has a formal charge of +1 (5− (0 + ½ × 8)). After adding up all the formal charges throughout the molecule the result is a total formal charge of +1, consistent with the charge of the molecule given in the first place.
