Two electrons are in the external shell of vanadium.
Vanadium has 5 electrons in its outermost shell.
The electrons per shell in vanadium: 2, 8, 11, 2.
This is an ionic bond.
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.

Depending on the element the furthest shell out, when the outer shell has been filled by an other element donating one electron it turns into an ion.
The electrons per shell in vanadium: 2, 8, 11, 2.
This is the electron on the external shell.
The key to "happiness" for an atom is a full outer electron shell. (The outer electron shell is called the valence shell.) There are two conditions that cause a shell not to be full. Either it has only an electron or two (or three) in the outer electron shell or it's short an electron or two in that outer shell. The direct answer to the question is that if an element is chemically active, its outer electron shell is incomplete or is not full.
Both statements are true:Every element in group I has one electron in its outer shell andEvery element in group II has two electrons in its outer shell
The electron shell is the source of an element's chemical properties and the moderator of chemical reactions; the electron shell depends on the protons that constitute the atom
Valence.

The first thing to do is find vanadium's atomic number on a periodic table. We see that it's 23, thus vanadium has 23 protons and 23 electrons. Next we just start filling in the orbitals until we reach 23 electrons. This gives us an electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d3. Well, from here it's clear to see that vanadium has only 3 d electrons.
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
The smallest element on the Periodic Table is Hydrogen. It has only 1 electron in 1 electron shell and 1 proton in it's nucleus.
