Calorimetry Involving Heat of Solution of NaOH(s)

I recently performed a lab experiment dealing with the properties of a coffee cup calorimeter.  One of the procedures involved measuring the temperature of 50mL water placed in a calorimeter for 3 minutes, and then adding NaOH(s) pellets and measuring the temperature for 4 more minutes.  I have several temperature measurements, but I am not sure how to use that data to calculate "heat gained by solution" , "heat gained by calorimeter" , "total heat of reaction" , or "heat of solution per mole."  Please see the attached file to view my data, but I am mainly interested in how I would go about filling out the "Data/Calculation" chart at the bottom of the page.  Thanks!
