Interpretation:
The relation between chemistry and smell needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Smell is a complex process in which binding of some molecules takes place inside our nose. Smell of a molecule depends on the type of

Explanation of Solution
Molecules have different shapes which are complimentary with the nasal receptor. Those molecules which are structurally fitting with the receptor will give the sensation of smell.
Different chemicals are there which have characteristic smell. For example,ethyl acetate has fruity smell because of the esters have sweet smell. As molecules have different functional groups so those have different bonding interaction with nasal receptors which attibutes for the diversity in smell of different compounds.
Smelling is a complex biochemical reaction taking place between receptor and molecules. This diversity comes from the functional groups present in a chemical.

You DO NOT need to use the same number of arrows that are shown (you may use more or less), but the product must be formed from the reactant. Then write the mechanism of one step in the synthesis (you can choose which step to write the mechanism for), including all reagents required, clearly labeling the nucleophile and electrophile for each step, and using curved arrows to show the steps in the mechanism. a. b.
