List-$I$:
$P$. Two $d$-orbitals overlapping axially with same phase.
$Q$. $A$ $p$-orbital and a $d$-orbital overlapping laterally with same phase.
$R$. $A$ $p$-orbital and a $d$-orbital overlapping laterally with opposite phase.
$S$. Two $d$-orbitals overlapping axially with opposite phase.
List-$II$:
$1$. $p-d$ $\pi$ antibonding
$2$. $d-d$ $\sigma$ bonding
$3$. $p-d$ $\pi$ bonding
$4$. $d-d$ $\sigma$ antibonding
