Correct: it is a dimensionless number.
A dimensionless number has no units. The units of all variables that compose the dimensionless number (product or ratio) must cancel each other.
Yes, the magnitude of a vector is a scalar.
A dimensionless unit - an integer (or counting number)!
Specific heat is dimensionless, and dimensionless units have the same value in any system. Specific heat is the ratio between two densities - that of the substance considered, and that of water. The ratio of two quantities of the same dimension will naturally be a dimensionless number.
Reynolds number Re is a dimensionless number that gives a measure of the ratio of internal forces to viscous forces and consequently quantifies the relative importance of these two types of forces for given flow conditions

If a quantity is "dimensionless", that means it has no units, and it's just a number.
REYNOLDS NUMBER:It gives measure of ratio of the inertial forces to the viscous forces & it is a dimensionless quatity.Physical significance:1.It signifies the relative predominance of inetia to viscous forces.2.It is very useful in determining whether the flow is laminar or turbulent.
32 is a pure number (integer) and is dimensionless.
the dimensionless numbers have the definition as that of dimensionless groups, and have all the properties which dimensionless groups have.
A pure dimensionless (without units) number is never equivalent to a number with a unit.

60 is a dimensionless number. An hour is a unit for measuring time.
Yes, the magnitude of a vector is a scalar.
