O B. Elements W and Z are nonmetals, but Element w Is In Group 17 (halogen). Elements X and Y are metals.
C. Elements W and Z are nonmetals, Elements X and Y are metals, but Element Y is in Group 1 (alkall metal)
© D. Elements W and Z are metals, Elements X and Y are nonmetals, but Element Y is in Group 18 (noble gas).
