Two capacitors having capacitance \(C_1\) and \(C_2\) respectively are connected as shown in the figure. Initially, capacitor \(C_1\) is charged to a potential difference \(V\) volt by a battery. The battery is then removed and the charged capacitor \(C_1\) is now connected to uncharged capacitor \(C_2\) by closing the switch \(S\). The amount of charge on the capacitor \(C_2\), after equilibrium, is: 
           
1. \(\dfrac{C_1 C_2}{\left(C_1+C_2\right)} V \)

2. \(\dfrac{\left(C_1+C_2\right)}{C_1 C_2} V \)

3. \(\left({C}_1+{C}_2\right) {V} \)

4. \(\left({C}_1-{C}_2\right) {V}\)
