What is the difference between the capacitance of a capacitor when they are connected in by a battery and disconnect from the battery

A capacitor of capacitance C is charged fully using a battery of e.m.f, E . It is then
disconnected form the battery . If the separation between the plates of the capacitor is
now doubled. What will happen to : Charge stored by the capacitor,P.D across it, field
strength between the plates and energy stored between the plates of the capacitor.. Answer the question again, if the battery is kept connected

Q. A capacitor of capacitance

100 μ F

is connected across a battery of emf

6.0 V

through a resistance of

20 k Ω

4 s

. The battery is then replaced by a thick wire. What will be the charge on the capacitor,

4 s

after the battery is disconnected?

Q. A capacitor is charged with a battery and then removed from the battery. In this specially designed capacitor, we are able to make the plate size (area) larger without changing anything else.
If the plate area is made larger after the capacitor has been disconnected, what will happen to the charge on the plates, the voltage across the plates, and the value of capacitance for this capacitor?

Q. A capacitor of capacitance

2 μ F

is charged with a

10 V

battery. Now battery is disconnected and a dielectric of dielectric constant

K = 4

is inserted between the plates. What is the potential difference between the plates of the capacitor?
