The gas must be inert‚ so it won’t react with the sample to give a false reading. The stationary phase is a substance fixed in place to which the sample adsorbs because

    It is gas taxation. Taxes on gas hit wallets hard and drain bank accounts. The federal gas tax was a mere penny per gallon and first came into effect in 1932 as a temporary charge.
