ANSWER

H3P is an acid

Step-by-step explanation

An acid is a substance that will produce hydrogen ions as the only positive ion when dissolved in water.

When H3P is dissolved in water, the below reaction will be generated

$H_3P+H_2O\text{ }\rightarrow2H_2\text{ + POH}$

Therefore, H3P is an acid
