Very very small numbers as for example 0.00000078 = 7.8*10^-7 in scientific notation
Exponents are negative numbers. This is used in math a lot.
Yes, except for zero. Numbers larger than 1 have positive exponents, and numbers between 0 and 1 have negative exponents. Negative numbers would just have a '-' in front.
Scientific notation is a way to express very large or very small numbers. For very large exponent is positive; for very small exponent is negative. For example, 1,000,000 is 1 x 10 to the plus 6 exponent; 0.000001 is 1 x 10 to the negative 6 exponent
Scientific notation is a way to write very large or very small numbers using exponents. For example 2000 is 2x103 . We can do the same thing with negative exponents and write very small numbers like 1/2000 which is 2x10-3 . So one real life use of exponents in in scientific notation.
Same.

Only if the numbers to be converted into scientific notation are the same otherwise the exponents can vary according to the size the numbers.

yes its really important
Same.
You subtract the exponent of the divisor from that of the dividend.
When adding or subtracting numbers in scientific notation, the exponents must be the same to ensure that the terms are expressed in the same scale. Scientific notation represents numbers as a product of a coefficient and a power of ten, so if the exponents differ, the values are on different scales, making direct addition or subtraction impossible. By adjusting the numbers to have the same exponent, you can accurately combine the coefficients before simplifying the result back into proper scientific notation.
To add or subtract numbers in scientific notation, ensure the exponents are the same; if not, adjust one of the numbers so they match before performing the operation. For multiplication, multiply the coefficients and add the exponents. For division, divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents. Finally, express the result in proper scientific notation, adjusting the coefficient to be between 1 and 10 if necessary.
Write the mantissa as a negative number.
When you add numbers in scientific notation, it is best to convert them to their original decimal form, or at least change them so that they have the same exponent. Then when you are finished adding, simply put the solution is proper scientific notation.
