Solution:
Ambident nucleophile are the nucleophile those have more than one atom to donate electron to reactant.
In $CN^{-},C\&N$ these two atoms donate electron.
In $NO_{2}^{-},N\&O$ these two atoms donate electron.
In $HSO_{3}^{-},S\&O$ these two atoms donate electron.
So all of these are ambident ligand.
