conceptual doubt- capacitors

IIT JEE 2015 Preparation › Electricity and magnetism questions › conceptual doubt- capacitors

Here's the doubt

When a fully charged capacitor is connected across an uncharged one, is total energy of the system of the two capacitors conserved? If no then where and how is it lost?

Thanks for your replies.

Total energy decreses,some energy is lost in reassembling of charges.
