Which statement describes potassium-argon dating? potassium-40 decays into argon gas over time. argon breaks down into other elements and compounds. potassium-40 becomes stable when trapped in rocks. argon is unstable and will decay into potassium-40 over time.

Potassium-40 decays into argon gas over time.

Explanation: Potassium-argon dating is a dating method used to determine the age of sedimentary rocks by comparing the proportion of K-40 to Ar-40 in a sample of rock, and knowing the decay rate of K-40.

Potassium-40 undergoes decay following first order kinetics as given below:
