Three is the answer expected. Higher valences of phosphorus, in PCl5 for example can be explained by hybridisation although this method is not the only explanation.

wo. A strange question! if you hybridise the 3s and 3 p orbitals you end up with sp3 and still get the same answer. Perhaps the hybridisation involves d orbitals, if that is what you are being taught.

Without hybridization, oxygen has a valence electron configuration of 2s22p4. Which means it has 2 unpaired electrons; therefore it can form 2 bonds.

Calcium can form the ion Ca2+ and forms many ionic compounds. Hybridisation would indicate we were talking about covalent bonding, calcium is not good at this, for example organo-calcium compounds are much more unstable than magnesium.
it is not compulsory to break or make bonds. they could involve just transfer of electrons from one molecule to another, without bond making or breaking.
The hybridization of Titanium in TiCl4 is Sd3 covalant Liqiid with boilling point 136 degree centigrade. The 4S2 electron is promoted to 3d orbital to make it d3 followed by Sd3 tetrahedral hybridization.
it can make covalent bonds!
Make a solution with the two types of DNA
Calcium can make two bonds because it is in the same group as oxygen.
