The coefficient is between 1 and 10
1X10^1 Scientific notation isn't really necessary for number between .00001 and 10000. It's for numbers that are intensely small or incredibly large. For those, it's quicker to write the number than to do the scientific notation.
Scientific notation is usually used to represent large numbers. For example - the number 123,400,000,000,000,000 can be represented in scientific notation as 1.234 x 1017. It's commonly used in astronomy when referring to the vast distances between stars etc.
The general form of a number in scientific notation is ax 10n, where a must be between 1 and 10, and nmust be an integer. (Thus, for example, these are not in scientific notation: 34 x 105; 4.8 x 100.5.).
An example of a number in scientific notation would be 3.7 x 10⁶
2.37 X 102 ============as you see for numbers this small scientific notation is more inconvenient than just writing the number in standard notation

The base number must be 10.
Nope. Scientific notation always starts with a number between 1 and 10.

Scientific notation is always written as a number (between 1 and 10) multiplied by a power of ten. For example: 107.6 in scientific notation would be 1.076 x 102 notice how the first number is between 1 and 10 and it is being multiplied by a power of ten. So the example you gave is not written in the same format and is thus not written in scientific notation. If you were to write it in scientific notation you would multiply the two numbers and then convert the answer to scientific notation and write it as: 1.0602904 x 103

You don't - just as you don't with a number in normal notation.
In both notations a number is represented in the form a*10^b where a is a real number and bis an integer.In scientific notation, 1
