If I have a cube made out of capacitors, that's one capacitor for everyside for a total of 12 capacitors. Each capacitor is C=4.71 pF. What is the effective capacitance of the cube?

The electrical contacts are at oppiste corners of the cube.

Assuming the polarity is reversible. (point to cirric)
I will check my calcs and come back and edit but it would be equivalent to a net work two dimensionally of 3 in parralell in series with six inparralell in series with 3 in parrallell.
Meaning a formula of 1/((2/[4.71*3])+(1/[4.71*6]))
which comes to 5.65pF Whatch the brackets! The 2/[4.71*3] represents the two sets of 3 in parralell in series.
I have assumed that the points you are measuring across are diagonally oposite giving a parallel branching of 3 at begining and end.

Hi. Sorry, you must know the polarity of each.
