Scientific Notation is a way to write numbers that describe very large or very small things. There are two parts to the number in scientific notation: the decimal and the exponential part. | ||
Type the number 1340000 in scientific notation. Express your answer using scientific notation. | 1340000 = 1.34x10^6 | |
Type the number 0.000354 in scientific notation. | 0.000354x10^-4 | |
Type the number 3.14 X 10^3 in Standard Notation. | 3.14 X 10^3 = 3140 | |
Type the number 8.75X10^-4 in Standard notation. | 8.75 X 10^-4 = 0.000875 |
Classification and Properties of Matter
In chemistry and physics, matter is any substance that has mass and takes up space by having volume. All everyday objects that can be touched are ultimately composed of atoms, which are made up of interacting subatomic particles, and in everyday as well as scientific usage, "matter" generally includes atoms and anything made up of them, and any particles and objects that act as if they have both rest mass and volume. However it does not include massless particles such as photons, or other energy phenomena or waves such as light or sound. Matter exists in various states (known as phases) that are defined by various physical properties, such as state of matter, phase, shape, and density. The Standard Model of particle physics and the general theory of relativity describe fundamental particles and the fundamental forces acting between them that control the structure and dynamics of matter.

Short answer
Detailed answer
How do you express a number in scientific notation?
A scientific notation is a way to represent very large or very small numbers concisely, where a number is written in the form of power of 10, following the formula below:
m × 10n
Where:
- m, the mantissa, must be between 0 and 9.999 ...
- n, the exponent, is a positive or a negative integer, including 0
To convert any number to scientific notation, we must follow these two rules:
- The decimal will be shifted to the left whenever the given number is 10 or greater and the power of 10 is positive.
- The decimal will be shifted to the right whenever the given number is smaller than 1 and the power of 10 is negative.
Let's learn through examples:
Example 1: How do you express 0.0005 in scientific notation?
This number 0.0005 can be written as 0.0005 × 100 in powers of 10.
So, according to the first rule, to convert 0.0005 × 100 to scientific notation, we will shift the decimal to right and multiply with negative powers of 10 until the number comes between 1 and 10.
Thus, the scientific notation for 0.0005 is 5 × 10-4
Example 2: How do you write 427,000 in scientific notation?
This number 427000 can be written as 427000 × 100 in powers of 10.
So, according to the first rule, to convert 427000 × 100 into scientific notation, we will shift the decimal to right and multiply with positive powers of 10 until the number comes between 1 and 10.
So, the scientific notation for 427000 is 4.27000 × 10-4
