As the degrees of freedom of a Chi Square distribution increase, the Chi Square distribution begins to look more and more like a normal distribution. Thus, out of these choices, a Chi Square distribution with 10 df would look the most similar to a normal distribution.
Q. What is considered a low chi-square value?
A low value for chi-square means there is a high correlation between your two sets of data. In theory, if your observed and expected values were equal (“no difference”) then chi-square would be zero — an event that is unlikely to happen in real life.

Q. Is a higher chi square better?
Greater differences between expected and actual data produce a larger Chi-square value. The larger the Chi-square value, the greater the probability that there really is a significant difference. The amount of difference between expected and actual data is likely just due to chance.
Q. What does a chi square distribution look like?
The mean of a Chi Square distribution is its degrees of freedom. Chi Square distributions are positively skewed, with the degree of skew decreasing with increasing degrees of freedom. As the degrees of freedom increases, the Chi Square distribution approaches a normal distribution.
Q. Why is the chi square distribution skewed?
The random variable in the chi-square distribution is the sum of squares of df standard normal variables, which must be independent. The chi-square distribution curve is skewed to the right, and its shape depends on the degrees of freedom df. For df > 90, the curve approximates the normal distribution.
Q. What shape is a chi square distribution?
skewed
Q. What is chi square distribution give its limitations?
First, chi-square is highly sensitive to sample size. As sample size increases, absolute differences become a smaller and smaller proportion of the expected value. Generally when the expected frequency in a cell of a table is less than 5, chi-square can lead to erroneous conclusions. …
Q. What are the properties of chi square distribution?
Properties of the Chi-Square Is the ratio of two non-negative values, therefore must be non-negative itself. Chi-square is non-symmetric. There are many different chi-square distributions, one for each degree of freedom. The degrees of freedom when working with a single population variance is n-1.
Q. What are the assumptions of the chi square test?
The assumptions of the Chi-square include: The data in the cells should be frequencies, or counts of cases rather than percentages or some other transformation of the data. The levels (or categories) of the variables are mutually exclusive.
