The primary two factors are the area of the plates of the capacitor and the distance between the plates
Explanation:
Other factors include the properties of the material between the plates, known as the dielectric, and whether the capacitor is in a vacuum or air or some other substance.
The capacitor equation is
Where C = capacitance
A = area
d = distance between the plates
