Interpretation:
The thing that should be done to invent a new smell by a chemist needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Smell is an important physical characteristic of a molecule which depends on the structural features present in the molecule.
Explanation of Solution
As functional group is important in controlling physical and chemical properties of a compound hence combination of different functional groups might create a new smell. The contribution of individual functional group as a whole can generate a complex new smell.
Thus, a new smell can be invented by synthesizing new molecules with help of other existing molecules.
