Can someone provide an explanation on why that is and maybe give an website on where you found it and How come in histograms the bars connect but not in the bar graphs?
Bar graphs are used for qualitative or discrete [quantitative] data. Values between the bar categories are not possible an to emphasise that, the bars have gaps between them. Conversely, histograms are used for continuous data and so the values on the "category" axis form a continuum. To illustrate this, the bars touch on another. I learned this well before the internet was widely available so did not need a website.
What is the similarity between bar graphs and histograms?
they both use bars to show data and show ranges of data aswell.
When to use a histogram?
Histograms are relatively similar to line plots; A bar graph of a frequency distribution in which the widths of the bars are proportional to the classes into which the variable has been divided and the heights of the bars are proportional to the class frequencies.noun
Why don't bars touch on a bar graph?
The question is misguided because bars CAN, and often do, touch.
Why don't the bars touch on a bar graph?
they touch all the time
Which Type Of Chart Display Bars side by side?
Bar charts and histograms.

In a histogram does all bars have to touch even if a data is 0?
Of course they touch
Do 4 bar graphs touch?
the bars normally do not touch each other.
Can histograms be sideways?
yes
How are histograms and bar graphs different?
In a bar graph, the height of the bars is relative to the frequency. In a histogram, the area of the bars is relative to the frequency. Because it deals with area, the label on the y-axis is "frequency density" rather than just "frequency"
What is it called when bars touch on a graph?
It is called a histogram
