Answer:

A closed system is a system in which matter and energy are not exchanged with the surroundings.

Step-by-step explanation:

A closed system is a physical system that does not interact with other physical agents located outside it and therefore is not connected casually or related to anything external to it. The total energy of a closed system is conserved; in fact, a closed system when it is isolated can not exchange energy with anything external to it.

A distinction is made between open system and closed system. An open system exchanges matter with the surroundings, while a closed system does not.
