analytical chemistry - Sodium percarbonate and sulfuric acid reaction


If an excess sulfuric acid is added to a detergent containing sodium percarbonate, would it be possible for the excess acid to react with hydrogen peroxide?


I believe that the hydrogen peroxide will be released from the reaction with sulfuric acid given by this reaction


$$\ce{2Na2CO3·3H2O2 + 3H2SO4 -> 3H2O2 + 2NaSO4 + 2CO2 + 2H2O}$$


So if an excess acid is added will it react with hydrogen peroxide to yield peroxymonosulfuric acid?
