II. $Li_{2}CO_{3} < Na_{2}CO_{3} < K_{2}CO_{3}$

III. $K_{2}CO_{3} < Rb_{2}CO_{3} < Cs_{2}CO_{3}$

IV. $Na_{2}CO_{3}>K_{2}CO_{3}>Rb_{2}CO_{3}$

Solution:

As in case of alkali metals solubility increases down the group but decreases for alkaline earth metals.

Here the correct orders of solubility are

I. $CaCO_{3}>SrCO_{3}>BaCO_{3}$

II. $Li_{2}CO_{3} < Na_{2}CO_{3} < K_{2}CO_{3}$

III. $K_{2}CO_{3} < Rb_{2}CO_{3} < Cs_{2}CO_{3}$
