C Correct answer
Explanation

Helium has the lowest boiling point of any element at approximately -268.93°C (or 4.22 K), just 4.2 degrees above absolute zero. This extremely low boiling point makes helium useful for cryogenic applications. Hydrogen, while also very low at -252.87°C, boils at a higher temperature than helium. Argon and Boron boil at much higher temperatures.
