Question:

Consider three capacitors C1, C2, C3, and a battery. If C1 is connected to the battery, the charge on C1 is 30.8 %C. Now C1 is disconnected, discharged, and connected in series with C2. When the series combination of C2 and C1 is connected across the battery, the charge on C1 is 23.1 %C. The circuit is disconnected and the capacitors discharged. Capacitor C3, capacitor C1, and the battery are connected in series, resulting in a charge on C1 of 25.2 %C. If, after being disconnected and discharged, C1, C2, and C3 are connected in series with one another and with the battery, what is the charge on C1?
