Answer:
Explanation:
The element V forms acidic oxide so it must be non- metal because oxides of non metal forms acidic oxide like sulphur ( s ) or chlorine ( Cl₂ )
sulphur forms SO₂ or SO₃ . Chlorine forms acidic oxide like Cl₂O₇ , Cl₂O₃ etc
These oxides are covalent compounds .
So V may have 6 or 7 electrons in the outermost orbit .
Hence option D is the right answer.
