(B) When capacitors are connected in series,the equivalent capacitance $C_{eq}$ is given by the formula: $\frac{1}{C_{eq}} = \frac{1}{C_1} + \frac{1}{C_2} + \frac{1}{C_3}$ Substituting the given values: $\frac{1}{C_{eq}} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}$ $\frac{1}{C_{eq}} = \frac{3 + 2 + 1}{6} = \frac{6}{6} = 1$ Therefore,$C_{eq} = 1\,\mu F$.
