Protons/Electrons: 92
Neutrons: 140
***REMEMBER: There is always the same amount of protons and electrons. :)

Answer:
C. Y & Z
Explanation:
V, W are imaginary metals here because their valence electrons are typically less than 4. X, Y, Z are non-metals and have higher valence electrons. Here, if V or W bind with X, Y, or Z we make ionic bond (because metal + non metal = ionic). But, if X binds with Y or Z or any combinations of any two of the three non-metals results in covalent bond (non metal + non metal = covalent).
Thus, Y and Z make covalent.
For #1, I'd say it's "It will usually bond to multiple atoms which can provide a total of 4 additional electrons."
2. Ionic (I'm quite certain because anions/cations (-1 & +1) are Ionic from what I recall, if that's true it's Ionic.
3. "comparison of the associated families to which the elements belong" and
"the difference in electronegativities" are what I would choose, as I mentioned in a comment earlier.
If I'm wrong let me know, but I am at least 80% sure that these responses are correct from what I remember in Chemistry.
