Solution

The correct options are
A If $Q_{1}$ changes, both E and $ϕ$ will change
B If $Q_{2}$ changes, E will change but $ϕ$ will not change
D If $Q_{1}$ = 0 and $Q_{2} \neq$ 0 then E $\neq$ 0 but $ϕ$ = 0
As the electric field at any point on surface S is the resultant effect due to all charges in the system, so field at any point on S is $E = E_{1} + E_{2}$ where $E_{1}$ is the field due to $Q_{1}$ and $E_{2}$ is the field due to $Q_{2}$
Applying Gauss's law, the flux over S , $ϕ = \frac{Q_{e n}}{ϵ_{0}}$ where $Q_{e n} = Q_{1} =$ charge enclosed by S.
Thus field depends on both charges but flux is only depends on the charges $Q_{1}$ .
So according to this the options A,B and C will be correct.
