The term that refers to causing something to become equal or homogeneous by mixing is "homogenize." When a substance is homogenized, it means that its components are thoroughly blended to create a uniform mixture. This process is common in food preparation, such as when making sauces or dairy products, where the goal is to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed and consistent in texture and taste.

The other terms listed do not relate to the process of mixing for homogeneity. Hibernation refers to a state of inactivity and metabolic depression in animals during winter months. Halflife is a concept in physics and chemistry that describes the time it takes for a substance to reduce to half its initial quantity, often in the context of radioactive decay. Hard water is a term that describes water with high mineral content, particularly calcium and magnesium, and is not related to the action of mixing to achieve uniformity.
