The mixing of two or more atomic orbitals of similar energies on the same atom to produce new orbitals of equal energies is called?
hybridization
How is a molecular orbital formed?
In molecular orbital theory, MO theory, molecular orbitals are "built" from atomic orbitals. A common approach is to take a linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO), specifically symmetry adapted linear combinations (SALC) using group theory. The formation of a bond is essentially down to the overlap of the orbitals, the orbitals being of similar energy and the atomic orbital wave functions having the correct symmetry.
Do atomic orbitals have an exactly defined size?
No
Why sigma bond is formed?
By the overlap of atomic orbitals. In valence bond theory these atomic orbitals may be s, p or d orbitals or "hybrids" such as sp3. This is a complex area and the above is a very simple explanation.
Is it true that with hybridization several atomic orbitals overlap to form the same total number of equivalent hybrid orbitals?
True.

What is the orbitals outside of the nucleus?
The "orbitals" round an atomic nucleus are electrons, in anti matter they are protons

How many 3d atomic orbitals exist?
The 3rd period contains 2 of the 3 orbitals for the third sublevel. It has the s and p orbitals in it.
