dear student
hybridization is the concept of mixingatomic orbitalsinto newhybrid orbitals(with different energies, shapes, etc., than the component atomic orbitals) suitable for the pairing of electrons to formchemical bondsinvalence bond theory. Hybrid orbitals are very useful in the explanation ofmolecular geometryand atomic bonding properties and are symmetrically disposed in space. Although sometimes taught together with thevalence shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory, valence bond and hybridisation are in fact not related to the VSEPR model

Hybridisation in intermixing of 2 or more similar orbital having approximately similar energy to form same number of orbital intermixed before of indentical shape and energy.

Orbital to be intermixing may have different shape
Hybrid orbital will have same energy and shape
To intermix orbital their energy must be similar
Only sigma bonds participate in hybridisation. If 1s and 1p orbital mixed together they will form two sp hybridised orbital.

Similarly you can calculate hybridisation by using

Hybridised orbital = ( no. of sigma bond + number of lone pair + coordinate bonds)

=1/2[v+m-c+a]

Where, v= valence electron of central atom

m= monovalent attached to central atom

c= positive charge on central atom

a= negative charge on central atom
