Reference to question 2 part (ii).
I found out that:
Qt =V x Ct
Qt=50 x 1.67 x 10-6
Qt=83.5 x 10-6
I understand that in a series circuit for capacitor Qt=Q1=Q2=Q3
So if that's the case, looking at the circuit, since C2 and C3 are in series, their charge should be 83.5 x 10-6 since Qt=Q1=Q2=Q3
Hence, Qc3=VC
83.5 x 10-6=V x 10 x 10-6
V=8.35V
But how come my answer is wrong? Please advise, thank you.
