Dear student,
 
Electric intensity is the strength of an electric field at any point and it is equal to the electric force per unit charge experienced by a test charge placed at that point. Thus, electric intensity = electric force/charge.
As electric force is a vector and charge is a scalar quantity so vector divided by scalar is always a vector.
