Physics Problem - Please Help?

The membrane of a living cell can be modeled as a capacitor of area 5.0x10-9 m2 and a membrane thickness of 8.5 nm. ume κ = 4.5 as the dielectric constant for the membrane. What is the energy stored (in pJ) in such a cell membrane if the voltage difference across it is 73.0 mV?
