검증된 단계별 안내1
Identify the atomic number of vanadium, which is 23. This means a neutral vanadium atom has 23 electrons.
Write the electron configuration for a neutral vanadium atom. The configuration is: [Ar]4s23d3.
Understand that the 2+ charge on the vanadium ion indicates it has lost 2 electrons.
Remove electrons starting from the highest energy level. In this case, electrons are removed from the 4s orbital before the 3d orbital.
After removing 2 electrons from the 4s orbital, the electron configuration for the vanadium 2+ ion becomes: [Ar]3d3.
