1 IF CLAUSES (CONDITIONALS)  The Zero Conditional (type 0) We use The Zero Conditionals to describe routine conditions that have the same result. For example, we use them that always have the same result. For example, we use them to describe general truths, scientific facts etc.  If you heat ice, it melts.  If you heat water to a hundred degrees, it boils.  If there is a power cut, the lights go out.  If you fire the gun, you kill him  If it rains, plants grow.  You get 5 in the exam if you answer all the questions in a correct way.
