The capacity is usually printed on the cell, although it may be obscure (e.g.,
"charge at 50 mA for 14 hours," which means it's a 500 mAH cell).

From the RS catalog:

SIZE			CAPACITY (AH)
N			0.150
AAA			0.180
AA			0.600
9V (7.2V, actually)	0.065
C			1.200
D			1.400
High capacity C		1.800
High capacity D		4.000
