7th chords

When hearing 7th chords what is the difference between a dominant 7th and a major 7th

Just the minor seventh on top. Both have a major triad. Listen for the tri-tone between the third and seventh of the chord and its dissonant quality -- see if the dominant chord has a sense of wanting to resolve.
