Chromium is a transition metal and his varying valences and properties compared to normal non transition metals. All elements of the same type have the same number of protons, its what makes them their particular element. So chromium isotopes, allotropes etc will always have 24 protons. Electrons though im not sure i know that in say iron (II) and iron (III) it means that iron has a valence of 2 and 3 and hence an ionic charge of of 2+ and 3+ when it gives up the outer shell electrons corresponding with the roman numeral. im pretty sure that chromium VI means it has 6 electrons in its outermost valence shell. which is weird for a metal though as they usually don't have more than 4 electrons in their outer shell so im not sure. hopefully that's helpful.
