Capacitance :

Definition : Capacitance is a measure of the amount of electric charge stored (or separated) for a given electric potential. The capacitance is usually defined as the total electric charge placed on the object divided by the potential of the object:

C is the capacitance in farads, F
Q is the charge in coulombs, C
V is the potential in volts, V

Unit of Capacitance is Farad (F).
Dimensions M^(-1) L^(-2) T^(4) I^(2)
Pronounced as "M power (-1) L power -2 T power 4 I square"

Where
M is Mass
L is Length
T is Time and
I is Ampere. You can also denote it with A

Hope tou understand it

In the base SI units it is:

A^2 s^4 m^-2 kg^-1

If you prefer to base on Coulombs

C^2 s^2 m^-2 kg^-1
