Which type(s) of elements bonded to form the solute that would be considered ionic and which type bonded to form the solute that would be considered covalent? (i. e.
metal with nonmetal, metal with metal, nonmetal with nonmetal)

Ionic Bonds are formed from metal to nonmetals. Covalent Bonds usually form from nonmetals.

Explanation:

if two electrons have the same n, the same ℓ, and the same ml, then they are in the same orbital. the pauli exclusion principle states that no two identical fermions (a fancy word for electrons and other subatomic particles like electrons) may occupy the same quantum state in an atom simultaneously.
