(4): When an ideal capacitor is connected with an ac voltage source, current leads voltage by 900 . Since, energy stored in capacitor during charging is spent in maintaining charge on the capacitor during discharging. Hence over a full cycle the capacitor does not consume any energy from the voltage source.
