Detailed Solution

Since helium only contains one spherical atom, it has a lower boiling point. It is not very polarizable and has a relatively small surface area. A diatomic molecule of elemental hydrogen is present (H2).

As molecular weight increases, B.P. increases. Thus, the correct order is,

He<D2<T2.

Hence, the correct option is D.
