The Mexican Cession included present-day California, Nevada, and Utah (that's three), along with portions of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming.

The "fourth" is probably Arizona, because it's made of land mainly from the Mexican Cession though it also includes a small portion from the later Gadsden Purchase.

New Mexico is about half from the Mexican Cession, a small portion from the Gadsden Purchase, and the remainder from the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo.

Only small portions of Colorado and Wyoming were included in the Mexican Cession.

What new problem did the additional territory cause for the US After the Mexican war?

The additional territory acquired after the Mexican-American War exacerbated the contentious issue of slavery in the United States. As new states were formed from this land, debates intensified over whether they would be free or slave states, leading to increased sectional tensions. This conflict contributed to the emergence of the Compromise of 1850 and heightened divisions that eventually culminated in the Civil War. Additionally, it raised questions about the treatment and rights of the indigenous populations and Mexican residents in the newly acquired territories.
