Answer:

1, 4, 5, see the explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

We must remember that scalar magnitudes are distinguished by having only a physical quantity, that is, they have no sense or direction as an example of scalar quantities, we find mass, temperature, energy, specific heat, power among others.

1 . 150 [grams] , because is a mass = scalar

4. 5 kilometer [race], is an amount = scalar

5. 34 steps, is an amount = scalar

Number 2, and 3 are vectors because they have amount and direction.
