$A$ parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $10 \mu F$ is charged by a $220 \text{ V}$ supply. The capacitor is then disconnected from the supply and is connected to another uncharged parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $12 \mu F$. The loss of electrostatic energy in this process is (in $\text{ mJ}$)
