Capacitors series and parallel combination is opposite to the resistors series and parallel connection hence total capacitance in parallel is equal to the sum of all capacitances. i.e C = C1+C2+C3+C4+...+Cn.

When capacitors are connected in parallel they are like connecting resistors in series so
net capacitance=c=c1+c2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152*10^-6F
net capacitance=c=c1+c2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152*10^-6F

It is opposite to that of resistance i.e.
In resistors we add them when connected in series.
Whereas in capacitors we add them when connected in parallel.
In resistors we add them when connected in series.
Whereas in capacitors we add them when connected in parallel.

Simply resistance added directly in series and capacitance are added directly into parallel.
Capacitance=c1+c2+c3+c4.
=10+20+22+100.
=152uf.
Capacitance=c1+c2+c3+c4.
=10+20+22+100.
=152uf.

While connecting capacitors in parallel we will add them to get right value.
i.e., 10+20+22+100 and which is equal to 152 microfarad.

c1=10,
c2=20,
c3=22,
c4=100.
C= ???
capacitance are connected in parallel,
than C=c1+C2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152 m.farad
c2=20,
c3=22,
c4=100.
C= ???
capacitance are connected in parallel,
than C=c1+C2+c3+c4
=10+20+22+100
=152 m.farad

When capacitors are connected in parallel we have to add it C = c1 + c2 + c3 + c4.
= 10 + 20 + 22 + 100.
= 152 micro farad.
= 10 + 20 + 22 + 100.
= 152 micro farad.

Capacitors when connected in parallel can be added for total Capacitance.
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C= 10+20+22+100
C=152Micro Farad
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C= 10+20+22+100
C=152Micro Farad

When capacitance are connected in parallel
The equation is c=c1+c2+c3+c4
Therefore c=10+20+22+100
c=152 micro farad
The equation is c=c1+c2+c3+c4
Therefore c=10+20+22+100
c=152 micro farad

For equivalent capacitacnce,
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C=10+20+22+100
C=152 micro farad
So right answer is D.
C=C1+C2+C3+C4
C=10+20+22+100
C=152 micro farad
So right answer is D.
