Solution

The correct option is C $H_{2} O$ > $S b H_{3}$ > $N H_{3}$ > $A s H_{3}$ > $P H_{3}$
Water has the highest boiling point. In group 15 (Nitrogen family) as we move down the group metallic bonding increases thereby increasing. But $N H_{3}$ has more boiling point than phosphine and Arsenic Hydride due to its high electronegativity.
Hence the order,
$H_{2} O > S b H_{3} > N H_{3} > A s H_{3} > P H_{3}$
