"0 x" is only valid if x is a countable noun.

"No x" is valid for any noun.

Liquids are an example of non-countable nouns - "I have no water" but "I have zero oranges."

Some thoughts:

- English requires the use of an article with singular nouns, because the question of "which X" is important.

- This question is impossible for plural nouns (no "which X" when X is 2 or more), and where the noun doesn't actually exist - because it's meant as a type or because it physically doesn't exist.

- So these situations require no article to be used.

- English is so flexible that a phrase like "two oranges" can be "singularized" and therefore a sentence like this is possible: "Take the two oranges and put them here." What's implied and meant here is "1 group of two oranges" so it's still consistent.

- That's all brought up because it's another place in the language where zero and plural obey the same logic.
