Specific Heat Capacity depends on the PVT conditions at which the heat transfer is happening and thusway 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 characterizing the properties of matter and 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:

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