Amount of heat required required to change the temperature of one unit of mass by one unit of temperature:

c_pm = \frac{\partialdelta Q}{\partialdelta T}m \left(cdot \frac{\delta Q}{\delta m} \right)_pT} |
Specific Heat Capacity depends on the way the heat is transferred and as such is not a material property.
The two major heat transfer processes are isobaric and isohoric which define:

are material properties and properly tabulated for the vast majority of materials.
Specific Heat Capacity
relates to Volumetric Heat Capacity and density of the matter as:| LaTeX Math Block |

|
c_m = \rho \cdot c_v |
In many technical papers the "m" or "v" index is omitted which leads to confusion between Specific Heat Capacity and Volumetric Heat Capacity .
For multiphase fluid in thermodynamic equilibrium the Specific Heat Capacity is:
| LaTeX Math Block |

|
c_m = \frac{\sum_\alpha s_\alpha \rho_\alpha c_{m \alpha}}{\sum_\alpha s_\alpha \rho_\alpha } |
