We have the concepts of tasks in synergy. (we can create a task and associate our changes with that task). Is there something similar in Rational clearcase? as of now we just checkOut the files we need to edit , and check them in. But If i want to search a set of related files for a CR, i cannot search it (this is where having a task helps)

With ClearCase UCM, you have the notion of activities.
An activity contains a change set, which lists all the modified versions (created by a checkout/checkin on an element - file or directory).

WHat I want is to associate maybe 5 files with one task/activity, so that when i search a task/activity, it should give me the 5 files checked in – user2256404 Sep 06 '13 at 11:22

@user2256404 sure: simply set an activity as the current one (see http://stackoverflow.com/a/9764851/6309), and checkout/checking 5 files: you will see them in the change set of that activity (as in http://stackoverflow.com/a/8926682/6309 for instance, or http://stackoverflow.com/a/12247220/6309). – VonC Sep 06 '13 at 11:39
