A monolithic capacitor includes a laminated body including stacked dielectric layers and substantially in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and including a first surface being a mounting surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, opposing third and fourth surfaces orthogonal to the first and second surfaces, and opposing fifth and sixth surfaces orthogonal to the first to fourth surfaces; capacitor electrodes disposed in the laminated body and each including a capacitive portion and a lead portion extending therefrom to at least one surface of the laminated body, the capacitive portions facing each other with dielectric layers interposed therebetween; and first and second outer electrodes disposed on at least one surface of the laminated body and connected to the lead portions. A gap between the first surface and the capacitive portions is greater than a gap between the second surface and the capacitive portions.
