Solution

The correct option is A Eggs
During a chemical change one substance reacts with another to undergo a change in chemical composition. Chemical change brings change in the chemical properties of matter and we get new substances. Here the eggs rot and release a foul odour. The moth balls become smaller in size due to sublimation but the chemical composition remains same.The plastic bottle doesn't show any change. Hence plastic bottles and moth balls undergo physical changes.
