Hard to tell from just this photo but it looks like a philodendron of some sort.

Most likely an alocasia, looking at the stem, I’d trim the dead leaves and get it in a more airy around soil mix

Chop off the top, check the roots and remove any that are rotting (soft and squishy) use a chunky soil; mixture of potting soil, perlite, orchid chips and horticultural charcoal. Dome the top with a jar or plastic container for extra humidity.
