Abstract
A multilayer ceramic capacitor that includes a layered body in which dielectric layers and internal electrode layers are layered alternately, an external electrode on a surface of the layered body and a plating layer on a surface of the external electrode. The external electrode contains Cu, and a protective layer containing CuO is provided at a joining portion between the external electrode and the plating layer. When heat is applied to the layered body after the external electrode is removed, a ratio of an arithmetic mean value Xa of a quantity of hydrogen generated per unit temperature in a range higher than or equal to 350° C. with respect to an arithmetic mean value Y of a quantity of hydrogen generated per unit temperature in a range higher than or equal to 230° C. and lower than or equal to 250° C. (Xa/Y) is less than or equal to 0.66.
