A chorus basicaly( and I stress BASIC) makes one instument sound like several playing at the same time.
A flange imitates the sound you get when you put your thumb on a tape real.
I'm not sure what you mean by "condenser", but if you mean "compresor"... they emulate the "compresion" effect you get when you distort a pre-amp tube. Basicaly it limits the the output volume, so that anything above the limit will be brought down to said level. Then there is usualy a gain stage after.
And to answer your last question, they don't.

as far as analog v. digital goes. they're different. people will try to say that one is better than the other, but ultimately they're just different.
