Answer:

Infinity. Yes, specific value of water during phase change is infinity. This is because, as long as water is present and it is changing phase (at boiling point or at any other constant temperature), the temperature of the water does not change no matter what amount of heat you are supplying to the water. Thus, its specific heat value is infinity.
