8 x 10^-5
A number is said to be in scientific notation when it is written as a number between 1 and 10, times a power of 10 (power is an integer). Thus, 0.0000395 is written in scientific notation as 3.95 x 10^-5.
The decimal point in scientific notation signifies the precision of a number and its scale. It indicates where the significant figures start in a number, allowing for a clear representation of very large or very small values. In scientific notation, numbers are expressed as a product of a coefficient (between 1 and 10) and a power of ten, making it easier to read and compare magnitudes. This format helps in simplifying calculations and enhances clarity in scientific communication.
Standard Form, Scientific Notation and Exponential Notation are different expressions for the same thing. When a number is expressed as a value between 1 and 10 multiplied by a power of 10 it is said to be in Standard Form (or Scientific Notation or Exponential Notation). 3.4 x 10^14 : 8.9 x 10^-4 : 1.2 x 10² are all written in standard form. 15.28 x 10³ is NOT in standard form as 15.28 is not a number between 1 and 10. When converted to 1.528 x 10^4 then it is in standard form.
Scientific reports that refer to very large or very small numbers will use scientific notation. Howvwever, the notation is less common in everyday life. Having said that, media reporting monetary values in millions (or billions, trillions), or populations are implicitly using a related concept. These are based on powers of a thousand rather than ten.

The number 4,720,000,000,000,000,000,000 can be said as "four sextillion seven hundred twenty quintillion." In scientific notation, this number can be written as 4.72 x 10^21. The prefix "sextillion" indicates a number followed by 21 zeros, while "quintillion" indicates a number followed by 18 zeros.
It is said to involve critical thinking because it is used to solve scientific problems..
1.5 microns is all of what you said. Scientific notation would be 10-6m though
They are said to be written in the vernacular.
In scientific terms, something that is eaten can be said to have been ingested.
A scientific conclusion that is supported can be said to have been confirmed, or verified.
