To express 0.06 in scientific notation, you need to write it in the form of \( a \times 10^n \), where \( 1 \leq a < 10 \) and \( n \) is an integer.

1. Move the decimal point in 0.06 to the right until you have a number between 1 and 10. This gives you 6.0.
2. Since you moved the decimal point 2 places to the right, the exponent will be negative.

Thus, 0.06 in scientific notation is:

\[
6.0 \times 10^{-2}
\]

So the correct answer is:

**Answer: 6.0 × 10^-2**
