Don't know about liquid sucrose.... but the specific heat capacity of sucrose is 0.30. This means that 0.30 calories of heat are required to raise the temperature of one gram of sucrose by one degree celsius.

You sure you don't mean a sucrose solution... rather than liquid sucrose? Seems unlikely to have pure liquid sucrose, and very likely to have a water-based sucrose syrup solution. If that's the case, then it depends a great deal on the concentration of the solution itself.

According to the pdf (link to the left of this answer), the specific heat of sucrose solutions is:
40% sucrose sugar syrup: 0.66
60% sucrose sugar syrup: 0.74
However, note that it's in very strange units: Btu/lb . °F

Generally the specific heat of a solution is just considered to be that of water. This goes for sucrose as well. This is never exactly correct, however the specific heat from substance to substance changes much less than the specific heat does per unit of mass.

specific heat of sugar solution having brix

14-18 deg. =0.9

55-70 deg. =0.9

but some where i studied specific heat of sugar solution having brix 55-70 deg. =0.64 (please clarify whether it is correct or not)

It would depend on the cooncentration of the sugar in the water.

How To calculate Specific Heat of A compound Such as NaOH?

Specific heat is the measure of energy it takes to raise a unit mass in temperature by one degree Celsius. When measuring a compound that is water soluble, heat it separately to a specific range, then use the liquid to calculate the amount of heat that was used.


Would two different liquids stored in the fridge for the same period of time be equally cold?

No. They would lose (or absorb) the same amount of heat, but their temperatures would be different.Every liquid has a unique specific heat capacity.The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to heat unit mass (1 kg) of that substance through 1°Celsius.So, liquids with different specific heats would show different change in temperature after losing the same amount of heat.For example, a liquid with a lower specific heat capacity would require lesser heat to change it's temperature while one with a higher specific heat capacity would require more heat.Hence, since the heat lost would be the same, the liquid with a lower specific heat capacity would cool more and have a lower temperature.
