This test is used when you have one qualitative variable with many categories, eg the (color, size, shape) of an (item).

$$ \chi ^2 = sum(\frac{(obs_{freq} - exp_{freq})^2}{exp_{freq}}) $$

The $\chi^2$ curve does not follow the normal curve. It has a long right hand tail. As the degrees of freedom go up, the curves flatten out, and the hump moves out to the right.
