This depends on your definition of an acid. The answer is presumably Hydrogen, because most definitions of acids and bases require compounds to donate H+ ions or produce H+ ions. However, there is an alternative definition of acid put forth by G.N. Lewis (the Lewis structure guy) that says that a molecule is an acid if it is a lone-pair acceptor. According to that definition such things as BF3 would be considered acids.
