What is the difference between the set of whole numbers and the sets of counting numbers?

The set of counting (natural) numbers is the set of all positive integers, while the set of whole numbers is the set of all positive integers included zero.

Which sets of numbers are closed under multiplication?

There are infinitely many sets of this type. Some of the common sets include natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, real numbers, complex numbers. Also, as an example, all sets of multiples of some whole number, for instance: { ... -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, ...} {... -9, -6, -3, 0, 3, 6, 9, ...} etc.

What are the sets of integers and cite examples?

The set of integers is a set that includes all the positive whole numbers, all the negative whole numbers and zero. If you think in terms of sets within that set (or sub-sets) there are an infinity. Of course the obvious subset is the set of natural numbers. Natural numbers are the positive integers used for counting eg 1, 2, 3, etc.
