Explanation:

1. "We visited many of Rome's landmarks, but didn't get into the Colosseum." - The comma is used to separate two independent clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction "but", which is a compound - sentence rule.
2. "If I win tickets to the concert, I will go with my best friend." - The comma follows the long introductory dependent clause "If I win tickets to the concert", which is a long - introductory - element rule.
3. "Mom flew to Chicago and landed at O'Hare International Airport, one of the busiest airports in the U.S." - "One of the busiest airports in the U.S." is an appositive renaming "O'Hare International Airport", so this is an appositive rule.
4. "Leo ran down the block, across the street, through the park, and into the library." - The commas separate items in a series of prepositional phrases, which is an items - in - a - series rule.

Answer:

1. Compound Sentence
2. Long Introductory Element
3. Appositive
4. Items in a Series
