It depends on what the reaction is. Usually H2O is neutral. If in the reaction, it accepts proton(H+), it is base. If it donors the proton(H+), it is acid. So it based on what reaction it is.

Answer: both an acid and base

Explanation: By Bronsted-Lowery acid base theory: proton Donor is acid and proton Acceptor is base.
