\bf \begin{array}{rll} \stackrel{standard}{notation}&\stackrel{scientific}{notation}\\ \cline{1-2} 7000&7\times 10^3\\ 700&7\times 10^2\\ 70&7\times 10^1\\\\ \boxed{7}&\boxed{7\times 10^0}\\\\ 0.7&7\times 10^{-1}\\ 0.07&7\times 10^{-2}\\ 0.007&7\times 10^{-3} \end{array}

recall, for the scientific notation, it has to be using some power of 10, and the exponent of the base 10, is how many slots you're away from the <u>decimal point</u>.  0.007 uses 10⁻³ because 7.0 or 7. when we make it 0.007, we have to move the decimal point from in front of the 7 3 slots over to the left.  Likewise, the 7000 is using 10³, because we moved the dot from 7. to 7000. , namely 3 slots to the right.

the missing value is there in the middle, notice is "7".

well, we can say that 7 is using 10⁰, however most of the time the 10⁰ is omitted and we settle for 7 alone, however scientific notation wise, that'd be it.
