normal
In the given figure, three capacitors $C_1, C_2$ and $C_3$ are joined to a battery, with symbols having their usual meanings, the correct conditions will be

A
$Q_1 = Q_2 = Q_3$ and $V_1 = V_2 = V_3 + V$
B
$Q_1 = Q_2 + Q_3$ and $V = V_1 + V_2 + V_3$
C
$Q_1 = Q_2 + Q_3$ and $V = V_1 + V_2$
D
$Q_3 = Q_2$ and $V_2 = V_3$
Solution
as $\mathrm{C}_{2} \| \mathrm{C}_{3} \Rightarrow \mathrm{C}_{2}+\mathrm{C}_{3}$
so charge on $\mathrm{C}_{1}=$ charge on $\left(\mathrm{C}_{2}+\mathrm{C}_{3}\right)$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{Q}_{1}=\mathrm{Q}_{2}+\mathrm{Q}_{3}$
and $\mathrm{V}_{2}=\mathrm{V}_{3}$
so $\mathrm{V}_{1}+\mathrm{V}_{1}+\mathrm{V}_{2}$ or $\quad \mathrm{V}=\mathrm{V}_{1}+\mathrm{V}_{3}$
