In the following figure,$C_1=5 \mu F$,$C_2=C_3=10 \mu F$ and $\varepsilon=20 \text{ V}$. Initially,the switch $S$ is connected to point $A$ until capacitor $C_1$ is fully charged. Afterwards,the switch is thrown to the left side and connected to point $B$. The charge on capacitor $C_3$ after equilibrium is reached will be (in $\mu C$)
