If you charge four 50v capacitors in parallel then remove the 50v battery and hook it up to a volt meter will the meter say 50v or 200v?

If you charge four 50v capacitors in parallel then remove the 50v battery and hook them up to a volt meter the meter will indicate 50v.

Why thermocouple voltmeter is connected across shunt resistance and electronic voltmeter across capacitor?

There is no such a thing as a thermocouple volt meter. A analogue or digital millivolt meter or volt meter is connected across a shunt or parallel with the shunt to measure the current through the resistor. Say the resistor value = 1 Ohm, then by using the Ohm law formula to calculate the current, say the voltage (voltage drop), read on the volt meter is 1.5 Volt that is R*V = A that is, 1Ω*1.5V = 1.5 Amp. Any type of DC volt meter, analogue or digital can be used to measure the voltage across a capacitor if the value of the capacitor is large enough that reading will be true RMS. as long as the supply current (EMF Power) are larger than the load current.
