Thanks for asking the question.
The following quantities will be:
mass = scalar velocity = vector
speed = scalar displacement = vector
length = scalar force = vector
distance = scalar power = scalar
temperature = scalar energy = scalar
Work = scalar weight = scalar
Keep in mind that scalar can only be specified by magnitude and not by direction while vectors always involve direction along with magnitude.
Hope it helps

Scalar: Volume, mass, speed, density, number of moles, angular frequency
Vector: Acceleration, velocity, displacement, angular velocity
DEFINITION OF SCALAR QUANTITY:-
A scalar quantity is specified by its magnitude only. It does not have any direction associated with it. Volume, mass, speed, density, number of moles, and angular frequency are some of the scalar physical quantities.
DEFINITION OF VACTOR QUANTITY:-
A vector quantity is specified by its magnitude as well as the direction associated with it. Acceleration, velocity, displacement, and angular velocity belong to this category.
I hope, this will help you
