Concept

When 'n' capacitors are connected in series, the value of  Ceq is given by:

When 'n' capacitors are connected in parallel, the value of  Ceq is given by:

Calculation

In the given circuit, 1F and 1F are in parallel.

C1 = 1+1 = 2F

C1 is in series with 6F.

C2 = 1.5F

1F and 2F are in parallel.

C3 = 1+2 = 3F

C2 and C3 are in series.

Ceq = 1F
