`Mg_((s))|Mg_((aq))^(2+)||Cl_((aq))^(-)|Cl_(2(g))(1 atm)|Pt`

A

`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)-(0.0592)/(2)xx"log"([Cl^(-)]^(2-))/([Mg^(2+)])`

B

`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)-(0.0592)/(2)xx"log"([Mg^(2+)])/([Cl^(-)])`

C

`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)-(0.0592)/(2)xx"log"[Mg^(2+)][Cl^(-)]`

D

`E_("cell")=E_("cell")^(@)-(0.0592)/(2)xx"log"([Mg^(2+)])/([Cl^(-)]^(2))`
