LEGEND: Content 1
The methods in a short report are written as LEGENDS. Legends sit under your graphs and figures but above your tables. The information in a legend should tell the reader how you obtained the data in the figure/table by answering the following questions:
- What were the conditions or circumstances under which the data was obtained, e.g. the concentrations, pH, temperature etc. during the reaction?
- How was the experiment performed?
Legends provide enough information to allow the reader to repeat the experiment in their lab and with their equipment.
