Detailed Solution

Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of the electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between two point charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitudes of charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
According to coulumb's law, 

F=kq1q2r2

Number of protons and electrons in Carbon atom is 6 each. 

hence.

Fnet=kq2r2

Fnet =8.98×109×6×1023×1.6×10192(2×6400×1000)2

 

=8.98×36×2.56×10174×4096×1010=0.050×107=5×105
