CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2NH2 will be poorly soluble in water because the relatively long carbon chain prevents the formation of hydrogen bonds with water. CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2NH3+Cl- is more soluble in water because of the ionic fragment present. It will be separated into ions once added to the water.
