It depends on how your looking at it.
If you mean for the middle to be zero, than it has no opposite. It is right in the middle of the number line.
However, if the middle is 1 (Like with division) than the opposite of zero is infinity. To explain, we will use the fraction 1/x. The smaller x is, the larger the number turns out to be.
x = 5, 1/x = .2
x = 1, 1/x = 1
x = .05, 1/x = 20
So, we must assume that when you divide 1 by zero, the number with the smallest absolute value, the answer must be the biggest it can possibly get. It must be infinity.

In binary computing, the opposite of zero (off) is one (on). But they are not additive opposites. Zero may be considered it's own additive opposite, as only zero plus zero can equal zero.
Well, isn't that a happy little question! The opposite of -0 is simply 0. You see, when we have a negative zero, it's still just zero at the end of the day. So let's paint a beautiful picture together with positive numbers and leave those negative zeros behind.

If 0 plus 0 equals 0 why is zero not its own opposite?
But it IS its own ADDITIVE opposite.
What is a whole number and it's opposite between -0.5 and 0.9?
They are 0 which is its own additive opposite. 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
What is the answer to any number plus its opposite?
0 as the opposite of 3 is -3. 3+ (-3) = 0
What number is its own opposite?
Zero is the only number that's its own opposite. While 0 is technically not signed (it's neither positive nor negative), it meets the definition for being its own opposite because 0 + 0 = 0.
Why is the sum of a rational number and it's opposite always equal to 0?
Because the opposite of 8 for example is -8 and 8+(-8) = 0
If 0 plus 0 equals 0 why is zero not its own opposite?
But it IS its own ADDITIVE opposite.
What is a whole number and it's opposite between -0.5 and 0.9?
They are 0 which is its own additive opposite. 0 does not have a multiplicative opposite.
What is the answer to any number plus its opposite?
0 as the opposite of 3 is -3. 3+ (-3) = 0
What is the opposite of zero in alegebra?
zero has no opposite * * * * * While it is true that zero has no multiplicative opposite (or inverse), it certainly has an additive inverse, and that is also zero, since 0 + 0 = 0
Does the number zero have an opposite number?
Zero does not have an opposite * * * * * While it is true that zero has no multiplicative opposite (or inverse), it certainly has an additive inverse, and that is also zero, since 0 + 0 = 0
What is the opposite for cooked?

What number is its own opposite?
Zero is the only number that's its own opposite. While 0 is technically not signed (it's neither positive nor negative), it meets the definition for being its own opposite because 0 + 0 = 0.
Will the opposite of 0 always sometimes or never be 0?
Sometimes. The opposite of zero depends on the type of function under consideration. For example, the additive opposite of zero is zero. The multiplicative opposite is not defined.
What is the opposite integer of 243?
The opposite of 243 is -243.
How do you know te expressions a and -A represent opposite distances?
They are opposite if a + (-A) = 0
What number is equal to a opposite?
the number 0 is always equal to its opposite
What is the additive inverse of zero?
zero is its own opposite. 0 + -0 = 0
