Abstract :
Technological advancements in the recent past have changed the state of art teaching and learning styles to computer based education system. Connecting theory with practice is the motto of modern education system. Chemistry is one of the subjects which cannot be learned without practice. Nevertheless, most of the organizations lack assigned chemistry laboratories and apparatus to perform laboratory experiments. To overcome this problem, the paper presents a bio-inspired approach to automate the task of simulating inorganic chemical experiments. The approach involves generation of possible products from the input reactants using Genetic algorithm. Subsequently System of equations method is adopted to balance the reactions. Experimental evaluations established that proposed approach runs with 95% accuracy. Thus presented approach has the competence to equip anyone with the facility to decide and perform any kind of chemical reaction with any set of reactants and get results in a robust manner.
