Answer:

the minus sign

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the symbol for the additive opposite is the minus sign

The symbol for the multiplicative opposite is the inverse operation 1/x (I think)

So, yes, specific opposites have symbols, BUT...

Just saying "the opposite of" is too blurry to find one word that represents that.
