Capacitance
Capacitance is a property of a circuit element that permits it to store charge.  If electric charge is transferred between two initially uncharged conductors, both become equally charged.  The capacitance is the ratio of the amount of charge on either conductor to the potential difference between the conductors.  This is represented by the function: C = q/V.   The unit of capacitance is named the farad (symbolized F).  This is equal to one coulomb per volt. One farad is a relatively large capacitance.  Common examples of capacitance include: the human body, batteries, cell phones, laptops, cars, etc.
