Which outcome complicates stellar age estimation using potassium isotopes?

💡 Explanation

Neutron capture converts stable potassium-41 to radioactive potassium-40, thus changing the isotopic abundance used for age assessment through potassium-argon dating in suns. Therefore, neutron irradiation corrupts age estimates, rather than convection influencing potassium abundance.
