  2. COMMON OXIDATION STATE OF VANADIUM • The common oxidation states of vanadium are +2 ,+3,+4 and+5. Colour of Vanadium in different oxidation states: +2: Lilac/Violet +3: Green +4: Blue +5: Yellow IsotopesofVanadium: 48V49V50V51V

  3. USES OF VANADIUM: • Producing Alloy called “Ferrovanadium*” • Used for applications in axles, bicycle frames, crankshafts, gears • Used in cladding titanium to steel • Producing inner structure of a fusion reactor. • Vanadium dioxide VO2, is used in the production of glass coatings, which blocks infrared radiation. • Vanadium-gallium tape is used in superconducting magnets. • Vanadium pentoxide is used in ceramics and as a catalyst for the production of sulfuric acid. • Improve glucose control in people with type 2 diabetes. * Ferrovanadiuma: A vanadium-iron alloy
