Potential energy is a scalar quantity. Energy is the sum of a scalar part and a vector part. Energy W is the product of velocity V and momentum P; W = [c+V]P =[ -V.P + cP]. The Potential energy is the scalar energy -V.P=-vmv = -mv^2.Physicists consider energy a scalar quantity, but that is incorrect, energy is a Quaternion quantity, a scalar and a vector . The vector energy is the "Dark Energy" is hidden in plain sight, cP.
Gravitational potential energy is a scalar. Gravity also has a vector energy cmV= cP.

Yes. Energy is a scalar quantity. Doesn't matter what kind of.
Potential Energy is scalar/real energy. Energy in general is a quaternion consisting of a scalar part Er (potential) and a vector part Ev.
Yes.
Electrical Potential Energy is a scalar or real number. Ep = zc e2 /4pi r.Total Energy is a Quaternion, the sum of the real or potential energy and the vector energy, Ev= mcV;E = Es + Ev = zc e2 /4pi r + mcV where Ev = mcV and V is the vector velocity.
A scalar in physical science is a unit measurement in a single direction. For example, you can have a mass scalar, which is 1kg to the right, or you can have an energy scalar, which is 1J forwards.
The five different forces are the derivatives of the Quaternion Energy E=Es + Ev=[Es,Ev] where Es is the Scalar Energy and Ev the vector Energy. Force = XE = [d/dr,Del][Es,Ev] = [dEs/dr -Del . Ev, dEv/dr + Del Es + DelxEv] dEs/dr the scalar derivative of the Scalar Energy, the Scalar Centripetal Force Del.Ev the Divergence of the Vector Energy, the Scalar Centrifugal Force dEv/dr the scalar derivative of the Vector Energy, the Vector Tangent Force Del Es the vector Derivative of the Scalar Energy, the Vector Gradient Force DelxEv the Curl of the Vector Energy, the Vector Circulation Force.
It is scalar. This simply means that - unlike vector quantities - energy is not defined in a particular direction.
