    9.47 V

    Explanation:

    Here, 6.95 μC and 2.8 μC are in parallel.

    So, Cp = 6.95 + 2.8 = 9.75 μC

    Now, Cp and 4.5 are in series.

    C = 4.5 x 9.75 / (4.5 + 9.75) = 3.08 μC

    Let q be the charge.

    q = C x V = 3.08 x 30 = 92.4 μC

    Voltage across 4.5 μF, V' = 92.4 / 4.5 = 20.53 V

    Voltage across 6.95 μF, V'' = V - V' = 30 - 20.53 = 9.47 V
