<Vanadium> is the <chemical element> with <atomic number> 23 and symbol $\mathrm{V}$. It is a <transition metal>. It supports several oxidation states, producing differently colored ions in solution. Vanadium-containing <alloys> strengthen steel, while vanadium oxides participate in oxidation <catalysis>; the same element therefore plays distinct structural and chemical roles.<Periodic Table by Royal Society of Chemistry>[Vanadium, element data and uses]{ref}
