Orbital Hybridization and Bonding:
Orbital hybridization is the process of the intermixing of valence shell orbitals of similar energy of an atom. This gives a new set of hybrid orbitals that are equivalent in shape, size, and energy. The state of hybridization is determined by the number of atomic orbitals participating in the process.
