Zero is a rational number, and therefore is NOT an irrational number.

The definition of a rational number is any number that can be expressed as a fraction where the numerator and demoninator are both integers, and the denominator is non-zero. Irrational Numbers are all real numbers that are not rational numbers. Since zero qualifies under the definition of a rational number, (0/3, for example), it therefore cannot be an irrational number.
