A: Yes, "which" is the same for both singular and plural. Which is your house? Which houses are going to be demolished?

"Is" is not used when asking these questions because we are asking someone to make a choice that they think is best, so words like "will" and "would" are used instead. To use "is", change "where" to "which place"

1) Where would it be convenient for you?

2) Which place is convenient for you?

3) Which place will be convenient for you?

I am not sure if example (4) is natural, but is technically correct. You use "is it" instead of "is"

4) Where is it convenient for you
