Answer

For a bar graph, the data is sorted based on exact integer value. Therefore, there is a space between entries. Bar graphs are usually used in non-grouping data. For histogram, the data is sorted based on lower and upper bound which causes each column of the histogram to stick together. Histograms are usually used in grouped data.
