The correct answer is: Noble gases have very high melting and boiling points.
Due to the presence of weak dispersion forces, noble gases are sparingly soluble in water and they have low melting and boiling points. Due to the presence of completely filled electronic configuration they have large positive values of electron gain enthalpy.
