A parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery that maintains a constant potential difference. If the separation between the plates is doubled its energy is halved.

Because the energy is inversely proportional to the separation d between the plates hence if the distance between the plates is doubled its energy is halved.

Thus, the given option It will be cut in half is correct.
