n chemistry, hybridisation (or hybridization) is the concept of mixing atomic
orbitals into new hybrid orbitals (with different
energies, shapes, etc., than the component atomic orbitals) suitable for the
pairing of electrons to form chemical
bonds in valence bond
theory. Hybrid orbitals are very useful in the explanation of molecular
geometry and atomic bonding properties. Although sometimes
taught together with the valence shell
electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory, valence bond and
hybridisation are in fact not related to the VSEPR mode

Hybridization is a process which involves intermixing of orbitals of comparative energy, redistribution of energy and leading to formation of hybrid orbitals having same shape and energy. s and p orbital also undergo hybridization
One s + one p = two sp hybrid orbitals
One s + two p orbital = three sp2 hybrid orbital
One s + three p orbital = four sp3 hybrid orbital.
One s + one p = two sp hybrid orbitals
One s + two p orbital = three sp2 hybrid orbital
One s + three p orbital = four sp3 hybrid orbital.
