What is the correct Nernst equation for ...

What is the correct Nernst equation for reaction taking place in the following cell
`Mg(s) | Mg^(2+) (aq) || Cl^- (aq) | Cl_2(g) (1atm) | Pt` ?

A

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

B

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

C

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

D

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