can you please state some liquid which is a good heat conductor
(which have low specific heat capacity)
(which have low specific heat capacity)

Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. It is measured in joules per gram per degree Celsius (J/g°C).
Knowing the specific heat capacity of a liquid is important because it helps us understand how much energy is needed to heat or cool the liquid. Liquids with low specific heat capacity require less energy to change their temperature compared to liquids with high specific heat capacity.
Some examples of liquids with low specific heat capacity include alcohol, mercury, and gasoline. These liquids have a specific heat capacity of around 2 J/g°C, which is relatively low compared to other substances.
The specific heat capacity of a liquid determines how quickly its temperature changes when heat is added or removed. Liquids with low specific heat capacity will reach a higher temperature faster when heat is added, but will also cool down quicker when heat is removed, compared to liquids with high specific heat capacity.
The specific heat capacity of a liquid is a physical property that is unique to each substance and does not change under normal conditions. However, it can be affected by external factors such as pressure and temperature, which can cause slight variations in the specific heat capacity of a liquid.
