Amount of heat to be supplied to a given amount of a material to produce a unit change in its temperature:

 C =  \frac{\delta Q}{\delta T} 

Heat Capacity depends on the way the heat is transferred and as such is not a table property of the matter.

The two major heat transfer processes are isobaric and isohoric which resylt in different values of heat capacity:

Both  and  are proportional to the amount of chemical substance involved in a heat transfer process and as such are not the material properties.

One can relate them to material properties through the known material mass  or a material volume  or material amount of substance :

c = C/\nu

c_m = C/m

c_v = C/V

Overall, there are totally six different  heat capacity material measures:

c_P = C_P/\nu

c_{Pm} = C_P/m

c_{Pv} = C_P/V

c_V = C_V/\nu

c_{Vm} = C_V/m

c_{Vv} = C_V/V
