Re: Electron density
The number of hybrid orbitals equals the number of electron densities that result from bonded and lone pair electrons.

Re: Electron density
Yes, I believe they do. Finding the hybrid orbitals of an atom can thus be facilitated by knowing beforehand how many regions of electron density are around it.

Re: Electron density
yes the hybridization is the same as electron densities around the central atom as double and triple bonds require unhybridized p orbitals, single, double, and triple bonds as well as lone pairs each count as one electron density
