Essential Question: How are different pollutants made?
Phenomenon: There are many different kinds of pollutants that come from different places and different chemicals. There are different types of chemical reactions that create different products.

Watch the video on Types of Chemical Reactions.
Reflect: What are the 5 types of chemical reactions, were you right? Go back to your categories in #3 and see how you did! What did you get right? What might have gone wrong and why? Also, this video showed one additional type: Acid-Base Reactions (we might get to the later!).
Question 6
6.
About how long in minutes did this assignment take you to complete? It's okay if you did it over a couple of days. Input total minutes.
Challenge: Sort the “equations” in Set #1 into up to five (5) different categories.
Rules:
There must be at LEAST 3 equations in each group
Equal sign location matters. 1 + 2 = 3 cannot be in the same group as 3 = 1 + 2
1 + 2 = 3
22 + 55 = 25 + 52
6 = 4 + 2
A + B = C
C = A + B
AB + CD = AD + BC
AB + C = AC + B
🌲🔥+ 🌬= 🌲🌬 + 🔥🌬
👗🙍 + 👠 = 👗👠 + 🙍
😀 + 💛 = 😍
⛄🎿 + 🏂🏔 = ⛄🏔 + 🏂🎿
21 + 5 = 25 + 1
☔ =🌻 + 💐
CH + O = CO + HO
10 + 1 = 11 + 01

Challenge:
Sort the chemical equations in Set #2 into up to five (5) different categories.
Rules:
There must be at LEAST 3 equations in each group
Arrow location matters. 1 + 2 → 3 cannot be in the same group as 3 → 1 + 2
