There are many properties of exponents. I will cover those that are easiest to type up and then point you to a link that has some more. The basic properties are: Product of Powers If two monomials with the same base are multiplied together then you add the exponents.
xmxn = xm+n or for example 3435 = 39 Powers of a Power If a power is raised to a power then you multiply the exponents (xm)n = xmn or for example (34)5 = 320 Powers of a Product If a product is raised to a power then you raise each factor to that power. (xmyn)p = xmpxnp or for example (2a2b3)2 = 22(a2)2(b3)2 = 4a4b6 Zero Property of Exponents Anything raised to the zero power equals one. x0 = 1 or for example (anything)0 = 1 The other two basic properties are the Negative Exponent Property and the Division Exponent Property. For more information on those(they are hard to type because of the fractions) and video examples of the other properties go to http://www.squidoo.com/exponents1

Why do the properties for solving for exponential expressions apply to radical expressions as well?
A radical is an exponent, stupid.

What is the smallest raised number in a power that tells how many times the base is used as a factor?
The exponent.

Is 25 an exponent?
Yes, 25 CAN BE and exponent. Any number can be and exponent
What is the exponent of meter?
The exponent is a characteristic of a number. A measurement unit does not have an exponent. Since a metre is a measurement unit, it does not have an exponent.
What is the exponent in 10 to the 5 power?
Power = 5 = exponent. That is, exponent = 5.
What is the lost exponent?
what is the loose exponent
How do you get the exponent?
you get an exponent when you multiply EXAMPLE 10x10x10=1000 that is an exponent NO DONT THINK THAT IF THE EXPONENT IS 3 YOU MULTIPLY IT BY 3 NO WAY JOSE
