Co2 is heavier than n2 and o2 but it does not form the lower layer of atmosphere,That is why, though carbon dioxide is heavier than the oxygen and nitrogen gases present IN air but it does not form the lowermost layer of the atmosphere due to this property of diffusion and this property is independent of the gravitational force which is present in the environment.
