Hybridization happens when
atomic orbitals mix to form new atomic orbitals. The new orbitals have
the same total electron capacity as the old ones. The properties and
energies of the new, hybridized orbitals are an 'average' of the
original unhybridized orbitals.
The concept of hybridization was introduced because it was the best explanation for the fact that all of the C - H bonds in molecules like methane were identical.
