It is not an acid as such, but it is formed by reaction with water:

H2O + N2O3 --> 2 HNO2 (nitrous acid, a weak, monobasic acid)

Nitrogen trioxide (N2O3) is acidic because it reacts with water to form nitrous acid (HNO2), which can release hydrogen ions (H+) into the solution. This leads to an increase in the acidity of the solution, making N2O3 an acidic oxide.
