hey mate here is your answer
Non metals do not react with acid because non-metals accept electron from other so they cannot donate Hydrogen ion to the acid with which they are reacting so there is no reaction.
But there are exceptions also like phosphorus,carbon etc. For example:-
Carbon react with sulphuric acid producing CO2,SO2 and water.
Hope it will help you

Generally, the non-metals do not react with dilute acids. This is because when a substance reacts with acids, it provides electrons to the H+ ions produced by the acids. ... Non-metals will normally not react with water, however, non-metal oxides will react with water to form acids.
