why does negative charge flow from lower potential to higher potential

If there is potential gradient exist in a region, then we have electric field exist in this region.
Charge particle experience force (q×E) in electric field , where q is magnitude of charge and E is electric
field intensity. Negative charge particle moves in a direction opposite to the direction of electric field. 
 
In electric field , direction of low potential region to high potential is opposite to the direction of electric field.
 
Hence negative charge moves from low potential region to high potential region.

1) Five identical capacitors, each of capacitance C are connected between points X and Y as shown in the figure. If the equivalent capacitance of the combination between X and Y is 5mF. Calculate the capacitance of each capacitor.  2) Eight identically charged drops are joined to form bigger drop. By what factor the charge and potential change?
