Molecular orbitals are formed by linear combination of atomic orbitals. In CN- , valence shell electrons of carbon are 4 and nitrogen has 5 electrons
C (6) : 1s2 2s2 2p2
N (7): 1s2 2s2 2p3
Total valence electrons =
4 (of carbon)+ 5 (of nitrogen) + one - charge
= 10 electrons
As nitrogen is more electronegative than carbon, so orbitals of nitrogen are lower in energy, that's why we put the electron of - charge in nitrogen orbital.
HOMO: 3 sigma ( bonding mo)
LUMO: two 1π* ( I.e. antibonding mos)
