Is there an adapter that makes a Lightning Connector to a 3.55 mm?
I have EarPods that have the Lightning Connector but I also have a laptop that uses 3.55mm and I was wondering if there was a dongle that I could purchase.

No, it’s not possible to go from a Lightning plug to a 3.5mm jack. The reason is that there are 4 microcircuits in the lightning plug that need power, and a 3.5mm jack cannot supply power. There are adapters that go the other way, but the process is not reversible.

I think this goes in the opposite direction than the one you’re looking for.
Might this be better?
Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Cable (1.2m) - Apple
UPDATE - Never mind. Lawrence Finch’s answer should prevail over my comments.
Actually, that might work. But it says it is specifically for Beats, so perhaps Beats devices can supply the needed power.
