Here's the explanation for it.

The first molecule is an aldehyde as there is a #-CHO# group attached to a methyl #(CH_3)# group. The name of the molecule is Ethanal.

The second molecule is an amine as there is an #-NH_2# group attached to a hexyl #(C_6H_13)# group. The name of the molecule is Hexan-1-amine.

I hope it's helpful.
