How do capacitors work?

The maximum amount of charge you can store on the sphere is what we mean by its capacitance. The voltage (V), charge (Q), and capacitance are related by a very simple equation: C = Q/V. So the more charge you can store at a given voltage, without causing the air to break down and spark, the higher the capacitance.
