Correct:
A
Explanation
The matching of processes to their respective changes is as follows: (A) Heating Camphor is an example of sublimation, where a solid transitions directly into a gas phase without becoming a liquid [1]. (B) Cooling of water vapour to room temperature is condensation, the process where gas loses heat and transforms into liquid water [3]. (C) Cooking an egg is a chemical change because the heat causes irreversible protein denaturation and coagulation, altering the substance's chemical structure [3]. (D) Formation of water vapour at room temperature is evaporation, a phase transition from liquid to gas that occurs at the surface of a liquid [5]. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-4, B-3, C-1, D-2, which corresponds to option 1.
