In the following Potential energy vs. interatomic distance chart, interatomic force between the atoms will be zero at point __________ Correct Answer 2

The interatomic force will be zero at a position where there is no net attraction or repulsion between atoms. In the mathematical term, the is the point where the change in energy with distance is zero. (Slope of the above curve is 0).
