Adapter required
Yes — coming from Saint Kitts and Nevis, you will need a travel adapter for Argentina. Saint Kitts and Nevis uses Type A/Type B/Type G plugs, and Argentina uses Type I, so the pin shapes will not fit any wall socket. The mains frequency is also different (60 Hz vs 50 Hz). This rarely matters for electronics but can affect motor-driven devices like clocks and shavers.
