Hi there
Hybrid orbitals are a bonding scheme or model of orbitals, experimentally determined to match what actually happens in bonding. Hybrid orbitals are hybrids, or a mix, or atomic orbitals.
Unhybridized orbitals are the regular atomic orbitals that we have always known. Hybridized orbitals are orbitals that represent a mixture of unhybridized orbitals. These orbitals show what actually happens in bonding and help determine the molecular shape.
a sigma bond is made up of hybridized orbitals and a pi bond is made up of unhybridized orbitals
Hope this helps.
