It gives closure to the set of real numbers with regard to the binary operation of addition. This makes the set a ring. The additive inverse is used, sometimes implicitly, in subtraction.
Wrong! Not only is zero a real number, but it is the additive identity for the set of integers, rational numbers as well as real numbers.
No. It has a different additive inverses for each element.
Yes.
Inverse operations. Additive inverse is not one operation but they are elements of a set.

Zero is the additive identity in the set of real numbers; when you add zero to any number, the number does not change its identity.
The multiplicative inverse of a non-zero element, x, in a set, is an element, y, from the set such that x*y = y*x equals the multiplicative identity. The latter is usually denoted by 1 or I and the inverse of x is usually denoted by x-1 or 1/x. y need not be different from x. For example, the multiplicative inverse of 1 is 1, that of -1 is -1.The additive inverse of an element, p, in a set, is an element, q, from the set such that p+q = q+p equals the additive identity. The latter is usually denoted by 0 and the additive inverse of p is denoted by -p.
Closure: The sum of two real numbers is always a real number. Associativity: If a,b ,c are real numbers, then (a+b)+c = a+(b+c) Identity: 0 is the identity element since 0+a=a and a+0=a for any real number a. Inverse: Every real number (a) has an additive inverse (-a) since a + (-a) = 0 Those are the four requirements for a group.
On the set of all real numbers ZERO has no multiplicative inverse. For other sets there may be other numbers too, so please define your set!
An element x, of a set S has an additive inverse if there exists an element y, also in S, such that x + y = y + x = 0, the additive identity.
That would be the set of all non-zero numbers. If by number you actually meant whole numbers, that is integers, then it would be the set of all non-zero integers. They are also called Additive Inverses. For example, -5 is the additive inverse of 5, because 5 + (-5) = 0. Similarly, 7 is the additive inverse of -7 because (-7) + 7 = 0.
Sum, or addition, of numbers has the following properties:Commutative: a + b = b + aAssociative: a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c and so either can be written as a + b + cA set, over which addition is defined will usually (but not necessarily) contain a unique additive identity, which is denoted by 0. This has the property that, for all eelments a, in the set, a + 0 = 0 + a = aThe set may also have additive inverses. An element, a in the set, has the additive inverse, denoted by -a, such that a + (-a) = (-a) + a = 0.Not all sets will have an identity or inverse, for example, the set of counting numbers has neither.
