No, it's not. Chrome and vanadium are metals. Carbon is not.

Are chrome molybdenum impact sockets better or worse than chrome vanadium?
Yes, good quality vanadium sockets are ideal for torquing and impact.
Is chrome vanadium better for tools than drop forged or high tensile steel?
Chrome vanadium would usually have better wear resistance and tensile strength. Chrome nickel steels usually are used where a bit of elasticity is required, but it all depends on carbon content, heat treatments and other variables. Materials are quite complex due to these manufacturing treatments that they can be subjected to, which to some extent, depends on other factors such as the carbon content.
Is chrome vanadium steel is spark proof?
not sure.
What is the difference between chrome vanadium and black chrome mechanics tools?
Nearly all quality mechanics' tools are made from a chrome-vanadium-steel alloy to give them strength. As a final step in the manufacturing process, the tools are electroplated in some way to keep them from corroding and to give them a shiny, long lasting appearance. On mechanics' tools, the final electroplated finish is usually a bright chrome finish, and sometimes a matte (dull) chrome finish. In recent years Black Chrome has become a popular electroplated finish, and the black chrome mechanics' tools are using that for the final manufacturing process, and they look shiny black in color. To recap: chrome-vanadium describes the alloy of the tool, and black chrome describes the actual color.
What is added to the flux and form a slag?
Carbon, chromium, and vanadium.
What can spanners be made of?
Spanenrs are typically made from chromium-vanadium alloy tool steels and are often drop-forged.They are frequently chrome-plated to resist corrosion and for ease of cleaning.

What is a screwdriver made of?
Typically screwdrivers are made of CHROMIUM MAGNESIUM IRON Some may use VANADIUM in place of the chrome.
What are the best valve springs made from?
Chrome vanadium spring steel
Why is my reflection in chrome vanadium different from stainless steel?
Chrome-vanadium steels contain Cr, V, C, P, S, Si, Mn; they are hard and resistant to corrosion, abrasion and oxydation. They are adequate for tools.
Explain chrome vanadium and chrome alloy spanners?
I'm not sure what there is to "explain" about them; they're spanners ("wrenches") that are made of an alloy containing chromium.
What material are hex keys made of?
Chrome Vanadium Steel is the most common material used.
What is the Rockwell hardness of 420 stainless steel?
chrome vanadium steel is designated C41-55.
