heat
capacity given mass, initial and final temperature, and time? The liquid in question has not been given

Re: Specific Heat Capacity
As mgb_phys stated you need to know the
heat
transfer in/out of the mass or the boundary worked performed on/by it. If the mass is compressible, you may also need to know the initial and final pressures as well.
