No, helium cannot be hammered into sheets. Helium is the only element that cannot be cooled sufficiently to become a solid. It remains liquid at the lowest temperatures we can achieve, and that's very, very close to absolute zero. As helium is a gas or a liquid and never a solid (at least not yet) we don't see it treated as a solid, like being hammered into sheets.
Malleability is the property that allows a material to be hammered into thin sheets without breaking.
Yes - depending on what you call "thin". Gold is capable of being hammered much thinner.
Malleability is the property of a metal that allows it to be hammered into thin sheets without breaking. This property is important in metalworking processes like forging and shaping.
Malleability. Hammer an object to thin sheets. Aluminum foils as an example
Yes, gold can be hammered into sheets. A piece of gold the size of your thumbnail can be hammered into a sheet the size of a tennis court. Gold can be milled or pressed down to gold foil. This is the thinnest millage for gold and can be 50 times as thin as the human hair. It is so fine, your breath can break it.
Yes, silver can be hammered into sheets, a process known as silver sheet metalwork. The metal is heated to make it more malleable, then hammered using a technique known as planishing to create thin, flat sheets.

no because oxygen cannot be hammered
The fact that it can be hammered into sheets would seem to be the most relevant characteristic in this case.
There are a number of metals that can be hammered into sheets, and gold is the best of them. It is the malleability of metal that allows it to be hammered thinly, and a link to that related question can be found below.

An element that can be hammered is called malleable.
