As part of a university report, I am using MATLAB to format the graphs of the experimental data. I've done this by importing the data to workspace and plotting a scatter graph. I would like to reformat the x-axis of the graph to be as shown in the attachment, so that the axis is in the order of powers of 10s. How can this be achieved?

Refer xlabel documentation for more details,

For this question, I am referring to the incrementation used the the x-axis. Do you know how I can adjust the axis, so that it is in the order of 10s?

To plot the x-axis in powers of 10, use the semilogx function. (There are other options as well to produce teh same effect. This is the easiest way to do it.)
