How do I know which declension to use in Latin?

It is actually super easy to identify the declension of a Latin noun. You look at the noun's genitive singular form and see what ending it has. This ending tells you which declension it belongs to.

What is the difference between 1st and 2nd declension?

1st declension nouns are (almost always) feminine in gender. 2nd declension nouns are masculine or neuter. Again, the gender is arbitrary, but the declension patterns are associated with certain grammatical genders. Adjectives, however, have no inherent gender.
