Mg(s) | Mg2+(aq) Al3+(aq) | Al(s) and that is how a pro does it
Mg(s) | Mg2+(aq) Au+(aq) | Au(s)
Al | Al^3+ Zn^2+ | Zn
Al(s)|Al3+(aq)||Zn2+(aq)|Zn(s)

Mg(s) | Mg2+(aq)Au+(aq) | Au(s)
In a standard galvanic cell using zinc and aluminum, the zinc metal will act as the anode and the aluminum metal will act as the cathode. Zinc will undergo oxidation at the anode, releasing electrons which flow through the external circuit to the cathode where aluminum will undergo reduction. This flow of electrons creates an electrical current.
The standard state of magnesium is solid.
This forms a galvanic (voltaic) cell (battery).
Standard notation is a way of writing numbers using the numerals 0-9, and sometimes commas and decimals, to represent values. Word notation involves expressing numbers in written words, such as "two hundred thirty-four" for 234. Both notations are commonly used to represent numerical values in different forms.
Mg(s) | Mg2+(aq) Au+(aq) | Au(s)
Zn(s)/Zn2+(aq)//Au+(aq)/Au(s)
Al | Al^3+ Zn^2+ | Zn
Al(s) | Al3+(aq) Ni2+(aq) | Ni(s)
Mg(s) | Mg2+(aq) Au+(aq) | Au(s)
Al(s) I AI3+(aq) II AI3+ (aq) I Al(s)
Type your answer here... Al(s) | Al3+(aq) Mg2+ (aq) | Mg(s)
Zn(s)/Zn2+(aq)//Au+(aq)/Au(s)
Zn(s)/Zn2+(aq)//Au+(aq)/Au(s)
Zn(s)/Zn2+(aq)//Au+(aq)/Au(s)
Zn(s)/Zn2+(aq)//Au+(aq)/Au(s)
