Answer
A coke can (not opened) in a hot trunk.Hot water enclosed in a rigid tank.
Explanation
A closed system does not exchange matter with its surroundings but can exchange energy. The coke can (not opened) and hot water in a rigid tank fit this definition, as they do not allow matter to enter or leave but can exchange heat.
