Exercise selection looks more or less ok. Do you have a progression scheme and deload protocol in mind?
That should be fine. I typically warm up based on how I feel that day. Foam rolling, bands, etc are incorporated when I’m feeling extra tight.
“Arms” doesn’t say much. Is it biceps? Triceps? Forearms? Shoulders?
Would be a pull exercise. Some people swap them out for deadlifts. Just depends on your goals.
I wouldn’t, if you feel balanced well enough, go for it, it just seems like that may be an accident waiting to happen.
Legs should eventually get used to the work and be well enough for most if not all activities on the weekend assuming you aren’t playing serious competitive sports.
That’s going to depend on equipment and the availability of it. If your gym is crowded, don’t be that guy hogging 4 machines or 3 sets of dumbbells super setting.
I don’t know why people have fallen for the “don’t deadlift too much” lies. More sets is fine.
That will mostly depend on what you want to do and can afford. Really a case by case thing.
Directly? Not really. It could indirectly help in that it could increase work capacity allowing for more volume. Don’t overdo it and make yourself unable to complete your lifts though.

I’m a novice lifter myself, been in the gym for about 7 months but isn’t 2-3 exercices a day on the low side ?
