The given circuit shows two capacitors connected to a battery. After the capacitors are completely charged, the battery is removed and the capacitors are connected with plates of opposite polarity together. Then the charge on $2 \mathrm{C}$ and the energy lost in the process are respectively
  1. $0, \frac{2 \mathrm{CE}^2}{3}$
  2. $0, \frac{\mathrm{CE}^2}{3}$
  3. $\mathrm{Q}, \frac{2 \mathrm{CE}^2}{3}$
  4. $2 \mathrm{Q}, \frac{\mathrm{CE}^2}{3}$
