It is connected. It is just to vent excess pressure, the other end is supposed to be free.
It is normally stuck down the hole in the front chassis leg in front of the washer bottle filler neck so any excess coolant will drip down there.

Yes, it is normally shoved down the hole in the front chassis leg in front of the washer bottle so any coolant dripping out will dribble down there and into the arch/onto the road. Pretty much straight down from where your hand is in the picture.
It's just the overflow hose for the radiator so as long as it is pointing down and isn't snagging on stuff and causing other problems it is doing its job!
