No. EQ curves are something that changes from project to project. You might be able to find diagrams of what frequencies do what in each instrument, then tweak them according to what you want, and what you're working with, but equalization is just that, equalization, and how you equalize depends on what has to be equal to what.

you cut how much frequency when there is clash between sounds

like kick and bass, they are in the same range and cut around 120z for bass so you can hear the bass over the mix
