A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN

Explanation:

A good buffer system contains a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt. In this case; A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN, would make a good buffer system. HCN is a weak acid, while LiCN is a salt of the weak acid, that is, CN - conjugate of the acid.
