Solution

The correct option is D 10×102
Detailed step-by-step solution:
Scientific notation: a×10n is said to be in scientific notation if 1a<10, and the exponent n is a positive or negative integer.
Let’s check the options:

A. 5.34×109: The factor 5.34 lies between 1 and 10 and the exponent 9 is a positive integer. Hence, the number is expressed in scientific notation.

B. 9.1×102: The factor 9.1 lies between 1 and 10 and the exponent 2 is a negative integer. Hence, the number is expressed in scientific notation.

C. 9.0×103: The factor 9.0 lies between 1 and 10 and the exponent 3 is a positive integer. Hence, the number is expressed in scientific notation.

D. 10×102: The factor a=10 which does not satisfy the 1a<10. Hence, the number is not expressed in scientific notation.

Therefore, option D is correct.
