How would you rank two substituents when both of them have an atom attached to the same groups? For example, if one is -CHOCH2CH3 with O being single bond in the front vs the other -CHOCH2CH3 with O being a single bond not in the front; or a carbonyl vs a regular O. Also, I get confused when you have to choose from 2 carbons attached to different numbers of carbons and hydrogens. What is the best way to do this?
