Calculate the charge on the second capacitor before and after switch in the circuit is closed : Image related to
CE/2, CE
0, 0
0, CE
CE, 0

Solution:

When Switch is Open Equivalent Capacitance is Ceq=C/2

So, Charge on Both the capacitors in CE/2.

When Switch is Closed 1st Capacitor is short circuited .Now  Equivalent Capacitance is Ceq=C.

So, Charge on  the capacitors in CE.
