Non-Standard Cell Potential Equation

Does "n" represent number of electrons transferred in the reaction? I'm going off my notes from Chad's and I can't recall if that's what the case is. I only have 1 example in my notes.

Also, how will questions be worded differently if asked to calculate cell potentials when considering Standard and Non-Standard Cell Potentials? I'm assuming that if we see concentrations of reactant and product, we can assume it's Non-Standard. But that's not a very efficient way of looking at it. Perhaps in all questions regarding Standard Cell Potentials, they would ask us to calculate STANDARD Cell Potentials?

n is indeed the total number of moles of electrons that were transferred.

Thank you sir.
