A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ is connected to a battery and is charged to a potential difference $V$. Another capacitor of capacitance $2C$ is connected to another battery and is charged to potential difference $2V$ . The charging batteries are now disconnected and the capacitors are connected in parallel to each other in such a way that the positive terminal of one is connected to the negative terminal of the other. The final energy of the configuration is

  • A

    zero

  • B

    $\frac{{25C{V^2}}}{6}$

  • C

    $\frac{{3C{V^2}}}{2}$

  • D

    $\frac{{9C{V^2}}}{2}$
