I am not able to get the equations for hydrogen peroxide. I have heard that the peroxide linkage is weak and also hydrogen peroxide is acidic. in aqueous solution, will it dissociate to give 2 hydroxy free radicals or dissociate to give a proton and OOH- ion?

it will be corrected.

second reaction takes place where H+and hydroxide radicals are formed. But thats an unstable reaction . The other reaction is the formation of oxygen gas and water.
