A scientific calculator should have several related keys: a power key, often labeled something like xy or yx, to calculate powers; two antilogarithm keys (10x and ex), which often require you to press some sort of "shift" key first; and a key to type numbers in scientific notation - sometimes labeled something like "EXP". To use the latter key, type the mantissa, press the key, then type the exponent.

The exponent key on a calculator is typically denoted by a symbol like "^" or "y^x". It is used to raise a number to a certain power. For example, if you wanted to calculate 2 raised to the power of 3, you would press the exponent key and enter the numbers accordingly.
