I just brought this baby home 2 days ago and on the way home it's little arm snapped off😢 for now I put the arm nub in the soil, but what should i do? Will the arm grow by itself?

What’s up with the brown dot on top of the cactus?
Yes it’ll grow roots, but let it callous first before putting it on the soil (possibly in a separate pot, so you won’t drown it when watering the adult plant), then wait. Only water lightly when roots are formed.Â
On a side note, does that pot have drainage holes? Otherwise you’ll have to repot the plant in one that has them to prevent root rot, using gritty soil 🙂
