There isn't enough information to write the formulas for any of the compounds formed.QX and QZ is the best I can do; however, we don't know the valencies so we don't know how many of the Q adds to X or Z.
We could write Q<sub>a</sub>X<sub>b</sub> or Q<sub>c</sub>Z<sub>d</sub> where a,b,c, and d are small whole numbers.
