I need to see the skeletal form, written form as well as the, I think it’s called condensed ex. (cH3- CH2-CH2-CH3). To compare knowing what each look like. Especially with substieuients dangling off each.

At the organic chemistry level you start out seeing the molecules drawing and then transition to skeletal form because its faster and easier. If you are not comfortable with this see my skeletal tutorial: https://leah4sci.com/drawing-skeletal-structures-of-organic-compounds/
