Calculate the Capacitance given the Charge and Potential Difference

[member 757689]

Homework Statement

Find capacitance between two objects; one with charge +30 nC the other with charge -30 nC. Potential difference is 500 V.

Relevant Equations

C = Q/V

Hello, I would like some help on a homework problem. I would think that capacitance would simply be the positive charge's value in C divided by the deltaV value then multiplied by 10^-12 for pF conversion. Does this look like the right approach?
