True, a non-metal oxide is also called an acid anhydride which is the same as an acid. :)

yes, acid anhydride react from a non-metal oxide with water. :)

Nonmetal oxide is also called acidic anhydride, meaning acid without water.
e.g. N2O5 + H2O -> 2 HNO3

So, it is unlikely the acid you mentioned would react with a nonmetal oxide.

Non-metal oxides are also acids, so - no.
