Solution:

Concept: Overlapping of only same phase creates bonding.

(I) There is no case of bonding as a positive phase cannot simultaneously make bond with other orbital's positive as well as negative phase

(II) This creates bonding of p and d orbital.

(III) This creates bonding of two 'p' orbitals.

(IV) This is the case of anti-bonding of two 'd' orbitals.
