Covalent Bonds!

Covalent bonds are a form of chemical bond formed by the sharing of one or more electrons, especially pairs of electrons, between atoms.  (http://www.answers.com/topic/covalent-bond) It is known as the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms when they share electrons.  Covalent bonds represent chemical potential energy. 



  (Lets pretend my pink elastic is a rubber band. 
  The bond can bend and stretch, but if you pull
  hard enough it will break)
