Who's .... who is, as in who's the cute blonde that sits in the front row in class?
Whose... That is the man whose car struck me.
"Whose" is the possessive case of the word "who" as an adjective.

Who's is a contraction for either "who is" or "who was." ONLY. For example, "Who's going to the dance?"
Whose is used when you are asking about possession or ownership. "Whose ball is this?" or "I am writing about the person whose license was revoked."

"who's" is a contraction of "who is", "whose" is possessive
Who's coming to dinner? > Who is coming to dinner?
Whose shoes are these? > Who owns these shoes?
