Chromium has 24 electrons, arranged 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d5 4s1. Written on the previous noble gas that is [Ar] 3d5 4s1, and the shells hold 2, 8, 13, 1 electrons from the innermost outwards.
Hund's rule leaves 6 unpaired electrons in the ground state, which is what makes the free atom paramagnetic.
