The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Helium (\( He \)) has the lowest boiling point among all elements, at \( -269^\circ \text{C} \) or \( 4 \, \text{K} \). 
This is due to: Its very weak intermolecular forces (London dispersion forces). 
Its noble gas configuration, which makes it chemically inert.
