$\huge\boxed{Hey there !}$

The acidic behaviour of acid is due to the presence of hydrogen ions. The acids will not show its acidic behaviour in the absence of water, this is because the acids produce hydrogen ions only in the presence of water.

Acid does not show acidic nature in the absence of water because it does not release any hydrogen ions in absence of water.
