C-x k will kill the current buffer and prompt you if it's been modified.

I believe that in C-mode the closing brace (official name for the "curly 
bracket") will automatically display the opening brace.

I am a little confused though as you describe '}' as opening an d '{' as 
opening. When you type in the closing one emacs should highlight the opening 
one or, if it's too far back and not onscreen, display the line in the 
minibuffer.

All of this is from memory, I haven't done any serious C programming in at 
least a couple of years.
