Let the CAPACITANCES be C₁ and C₂

Effective CAPACITANCE in :

Series = C₁C₂/(C₁ + C₂)

PARALLEL = C₁ + C₂

By the GIVEN conditions,

C₁ + C₂ = 4C₁C₂/(C₁ + C₂)

(C₁ + C₂)(C₁ + C₂) = 4C₁C₂

C₁² + C₂² + 2C₁C₂ = 4C₁C₂

C₁² + C₂² - 2C₁C₂ = 0

(C₁ - C₂)² = 0

C₁ - C₂ = 0

C₁ = C₂

Hence the given conditions occur only if both the capacitances are equal
