B Correct answer
Explanation

Mass is a scalar quantity because it only has magnitude and no direction. Force, acceleration, and weight are all vector quantities as they have both magnitude and direction - weight always points toward Earth's center, force acts in the direction of application, and acceleration follows the direction of the net force.
