The correct option is
B (3C2)As we need to find the equivalent capacitence between points 4 and 5 so, let us first connect these points to a power source or battery.

Now from the figure we can see that three points (1, 2, 3) are at equal potential or they are bisymmetric points.
Since these are equi-potential points let us denote potential at these points as
x.

Now, in between equi-potential points we know that there is no transfer of charges so we can simply elminate capacitors between points (1,2); (2,3) and (1;3).

Now the only potential points in the circuit are 4,
x and 5.
The simpler circuit diagram of this can be shown now as

The equivalent capacitance between point 4 and 5 will be
1Ceq=13C+13C
⟹ Ceq =
3C2
