Answer:
I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.
I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.
I would heat the substance to a known temperature.
I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature. I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change. I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed. I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.
