Four capacitors are connected in a circuit as shown in the figure. The equivalent capacitance between P and Q will be:

5 μF

$ 2\mu F and, 2\mu F $ are in parallel. Its equivalent capacitance is $4\mu F$

$ 4\mu F , 12\mu F$ are in series its equivalent capacitance is $ 3\mu F$

Now $ 3\mu F , 2\mu F$ are in parallel hence its equivalent capacitance is $5\mu F$

The correct answer is Option (2) → 5 μF
