A new material was created in the lab. In order to determine the molar heat capacity, Cm, of the material 23.198 g of the substance was heated from 21.1ºC to 41.19ºC, which required 118.634 J of heat. The molar mass of the substance was determined to be 50.51 g/mol. Report the molar heat capacity in units of J/(mol · ºC) to 4 sig figs, but do NOT include units in your answer.
