The electron configuration for Chromium is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1 3d5 So there are a total of: 2 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 7 s-electrons It is worth noting that the reason why the electron configuration of Cr looks a bit screwy (the 4s is not completely filled before the 3d) is because there is an energetic benefit from having 5 electrons in 5 d-orbitals all with the same spin (Hund's Rule). The benefit is great enough to make the electron configuration shown above lower in energy than one in which the 4s orbital would be filled first.

How many electrons does chromium-63 have?

24, in the neutral atom. I think you mean chromium-53. It doesn't matter - the atomic number (the number of protons in the nuceus determines how many electrons there are in the neutral atom - the mass number ( the total protons and neutrons does not affect the number of electrons)
