What happens to quality factor of capacitor when they are in parallel or series? For example if one 270pF has minimum Q of 1000 and two capacitors in parallel with total value of 270pF, (each capacitor has minimum Q of 1000). What will be total Q in a second case when two capacitors are paralleled?

Should be the same.

Assuming the caps have the same value. The rest of the answer is left as part of the homework!
