Generally, ares of small magnitudes are considered as vectors, because they possess a specific direction. But areas of larger magnitudescan not be considered as vectors, they are simplyscalars.For example consider gauss law in electostatics. Here area is considered to have a direction.

then pressure is scaler or vector.
scaler
how
Pressureasa scalar quantity is debatable. I think that it is a scalar quantity because it is per unit area. There is no direction involved as such. I'm not sure about stress. I thinkpressuredeals with liquids and stress is for solids.
thanks for helping me
