The exponent in scientific notation should always indicate the direction in which the decimal point is moved to convert a number to a value between 1 and 10.

In the case of 6.352 × 10^-8, the exponent is negative, indicating that the decimal point needs to be moved to the left to convert the number to a value between 1 and 10. This means that the exponent should decrease in order to properly represent the value in scientific notation.
