Yes.
No. An addition operation need not even be defined.
Yes, they are.
Yes. The entire set of natural numbers is closed under addition (but not subtraction). So are the even numbers (but not the odd numbers), the multiples of 3, of 4, etc.
Say we have a group G, and some subgroup H. The number of cosets of H in G is called the index of H in G. This is written [G:H].If G and H are finite, [G:H] is just |G|/|H|.What if they are infinite? Here is an example. Let G be the integers under addition. Let H be the even integers under addition, a subgroup. The cosets of H in G are H and H+1. H+1 is the set of all even integers + 1, so the set of all odd integers. Here we have partitioned the integers into two cosets, even and odd integers. So [G:H] is 2.
There is no law of closure. Closure is a property that some sets have with respect to a binary operation. For example, consider the set of even integers and the operation of addition. If you take any two members of the set (that is any two even integers), then their sum is also an even integer. This implies that the set of even integers is closed with respect to addition. But the set of odd integers is not closed with respect to addition since the sum of two odd integers is not odd. Neither set is closed with respect to division.
The numbers are not closed under addition because whole numbers, even integers, and natural numbers are closed.
Yes, it is.
Yes.

0 belongs to the reals. It is a member of the irrationals, the rationals. It is also a member of the integers; It is a member (the identity) of the group of even integers, 3*integers, 4*integers etc with respect to addition.
The set of even numbers is closed under addition, the set of odd numbers is not.
I know that whole numbers, integers, negative numbers, positive numbers, and even numbers are. Anyone feel free to correct me.
Yes
Integers are the natural numbers (counting numbers: 1,2,3,etc.), and their negative counterparts, and zero. The set of Integers is closed for addition, subtraction, and multiplication, but not division. Closed means that the answer will be a part of the set. Example: 1/3 (1 divided by 3 equals one third) is not an integer, even though both 1 and 3 are integers.
Yes, they are.
