The correct scientific notation of 0.0034 is 3.4 × 10-3. Thus, 0.0034=3.4 × 103 is incorrect.

Q. The scientific notation of some figures are given below. Which of the following options is not correct?

$8008 = 8.008 \times 1 0^{3}$

$208 = 2.08 \times 1 0^{3}$

$5000 = 5.0 \times 1 0^{3}$

$0.0034 = 3.4 \times 1 0^{3}$

The correct scientific notation of $0.0034$ is $3.4 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ .
Thus, $0.0034 = 3.4 \times 1 0^{3}$ is incorrect.
