I am trying to compute the electrostatic interaction for a pair of atoms 
> from an energy minimized structure.

I have the charges on the two atoms as -0.47 and -0.55.  They are 3.15 
Angstroms apart.  So, E = (-0.55*-0.45)e-38 C^2/3.15e-8 m.

I get 8.21e-32 C^2/m.  My question is how do I convert this to Joules?
