some task vs some tasks

Both 'some task' and 'some tasks' are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'Some task' refers to a single, specific task. 'Some tasks' is used to refer to multiple tasks. The choice between the two depends on whether you are talking about one task or more than one.
