Which statement is true for any two capacitors connected in series in a circuit?
(a) Each capacitor has the same potential difference across its plates.
(b) The equivalent capacitance is greater than the larger of the two individual capacitances.
(c) Each capacitor stores the same magnitude of charge.
(d) The larger-valued capacitor stores a larger charge than the smaller-valued capacitor.
