http://i35.tinypic.com/19nhn5.png use this diagram from the question When this circuit is closed, which way do the electrons flow? from the positive end of the battery through the capacitor through the resistors to the negative end from the negative end of the battery through the resistors through the capacitor to the positive end from the negative end of the battery through the capacitor through the resistors to the positive end from the positive end of the battery through the resistors through the capacitor to the negative end

its c
the electron flow in a circuit is always the opposite direction from the actual current (or otherwise conventional flow) so it is from the ''minus'' to the plus of a battery or source of voltage.then the electrons pass from the capacitor as it is first in the circuit to the resistors and lastly to the ''plus'' or positive side of the source
electrons do not pass through a capacitor
the electrons would not literally pass through a capacitor, but there is a general flow of electrons in the circuit(which causes the current flow in the opposite direction), charging the capacitor plates. once the capacitor voltage equals the supply voltage, the current would stop.
