The peroxide here serves as a radical chain initiator. In the field of chemistry the radical initiatives are those substances that are used in industrial processes like polymer synthesis. These initiatives have weak bonds generally and they're mostly used to create free radicals. These radicals are atoms that have odd numbers of electrons. Peroxide is an example of such.

You should give answers since some people will just try and find any answer, which happened to me. So like if you have answers for the question just put them like A B C D kinda like true or false for others to know what they got instead of giving them more work, and then they just give you random answers.
