I assume the question is: "define according to your understanding that how could things be arranged so that C1 could hold more charge than C2"?

The amount of charge in the capacitor is:


q=CUq = CU

where CC is the capacitance, and UU is the voltage across the capacitor.

Since C1>C2C1>C2 it is only required to apply equal voltage UU acorss each capacitor to obtain q1>q2q_1>q_2 (C1C1 holds more charge than C2C2 ).


Answer. It is required to apply equal voltage acorss each capacitor.
