Maximum charge that  2μF capacitor can take  =2×3=6μC.

Maximum charge that 3μF  capacitor can take  =3×2=6μC.

Maximum charge that  5μF capacitor can take  =5×1=5μC.
In series, all capacitors will have same charge.
Maximum charge allowed will be  5μC.
Equivalent capacitance  1C=12+13+15
Or,  C=3031μF
Vmax=5μC3031μF=316V
