Questions tagged [electrostatic-energy]
Electrostatic potential energy is created based on the law of electrostatic attraction and repulsion, or Coulomb's Law. It describes the force exerted on a charged object(e.g.electron) due to the presence of another charged object (e.g.nucleus).

How can I calculate the electrostatic energy between two fragments?
I have a 2-fragment molecular complex with partial charge transfer from fragment 1 to fragment 2. The binding energy is ~0.3 eV and I want to evaluate what fraction comes from electrostatic attraction....
