Assuming the bond direction is along the $z$-axis,which of the following overlaps of atomic orbitals of two atoms $(A)$ and $(B)$ will result in bonding?
$I$. $s$-orbital of $A$ and $p_x$-orbital of $B$
$II$. $s$-orbital of $A$ and $p_z$-orbital of $B$
$III$. $p_y$-orbital of $A$ and $p_z$-orbital of $B$
$IV$. $s$-orbital of both $(A)$ and $(B)$

  • A
    $I$ and $IV$
  • B
    $I$ and $II$
  • C
    $III$ and $IV$
  • D
