Capacitor

A capacitor, comprising:

• a capacitor body including a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of internal electrode layers stacked alternately,
• the plurality of dielectric layers including crystal grains comprising barium titanate as a main component, a rare earth element, and silicon,
• the crystal grains including a first crystal grain a second crystal grain,
• the crystal grains each including a surface layer as a shell and an interior portion surrounded by the shell as a core,
• the first crystal grain having a higher concentration distribution of the rare earth element in the shell than in the core,
• the second crystal grain having a distribution in which a ratio of a concentration of the silicon in the core and the shell is lower than a ratio of a concentration of the rare earth element in the core and the shell in the first crystal grain, wherein
• the plurality of dielectric layers include 80% or greater of the second crystal grain in terms of a ratio of the number of grains.
