Detailed Solution

The batteries are in opposition as their positive terminals are connected together. Hence the effective voltage is 

V = V1 - V2 = 12 - 2 = 10 V 

As the capacitors C1 and C2 are in series, the effective capacitance of the circuit is given by

1C=1C1+1C2=13+12=56 or C =65=1.2 μF.

Therefore, charge on capacitors is

Q = CV= 1.2 µF x 1OV = 12 µc

Potential difference across A and B = potential difference across capacitor C2

=QC2=12μC2μF=6 V
