Graphing. Organizing Data A graph is a pictorial representation of information recorded in a data table. It is used to show a relationship between two.
Graphs Graphs are used to display data. They visually represent relationships between data. All graphs should have a title that identifies the variables.

Presenting Scientific Data ORGANIZING DATA Presenting Scientific Data

Charts and Graphs

Line Graphs Best for continuous change Independent variable (x-axis) Dependent variable (y-axis)

Graphing (YMCA)

Line Graphs Let’s make a line graph from data Volume of Gas (mL) Time (s) 4.5 10 5 20 10.2 30 28 40 44 50 58 60

Bar Graphs Useful when you want to compare things

Bar Graphs Let’s Make a Bar Graph from a table Element Melting Temp. (K) Aluminum 933 Gold 1337 Iron 1808 Lead 601 Silver 1235

Pie Charts Showing data that are parts to a whole

Pie Charts Let’s make a pie chart from some information Composition of Calcite 48% Oxygen 40% Calcium 12% Carbon
