A student determines the heat capacity of a coffee cup calorimeter to be equal to 4.73 J/g*K when it contains water and has a total mass of 125g.

A student determines the heat capacity of a coffee cup calorimeter to be equal to 4.73 J/g*K when it contains water and has a total mass of 125g. The initial temperature of this calorimeter is measured to be 32.7*C. A 41.7g sample of molybdenum metal is heated to 95*c and then it is immediately dropped into the calorimeter. The final temperature of the system is measured at 33.9*C. Determine the molar heat capacity of the molybdenum.

**I got -1.48 J/mol*K but I got this answer wrong and I am trying to see what I did wrong. Please show your calculations so i can easily follow.
