Two capacitors of $1 \ \mu F$ and $2 \ \mu F$ are connected in series. This combination is charged to a potential difference of $120 \ V$. What is the potential difference across the $1 \ \mu F$ capacitor in volts?

The combined capacity of the parallel combination of two capacitors is four times their combined capacity when connected in series. This means that:

Assertion $(A)$: Two condensers of same capacity are connected first in parallel and then in series. The ratio of resultant capacities in the two cases will be $4: 1$.
Reason $(R)$: In parallel,capacity increases and in series,capacity decreases.
