    Hybridization is the chemist's attempt to explain the observed molecular shape by constructing HAOs with the appropriate inter orbital angels. A molecule adopts its most stable shape all by itself, then the chemist calculated what HAOs correspond to the shape. There is a One-to One correspondence between shape and hybridization.
