Two capacitors` C_(1) and C_(2) = 2C_(1)` are connected in a circuit with a switch between them as showu in the figure- 3.302. Initially the switch is open and `C_(1)` holds charge Q. The switch is closed. In steady state, the charge on the two capacitors will be given as :

A

`Q, 2Q`

B

`Q//3, 2Q//3`

C

`3Q//2, 3Q`

D

`2Q//3, 4Q//3`
