(A) For the reaction $N_2O_3 ightleftharpoons NO + NO_2$,let the initial moles be $1$ and the degree of dissociation be $\alpha = \sqrt{0.5}$.At equilibrium,the moles are: $N_2O_3 = (1 - \alpha^2)$,$NO = \alpha^2$,$NO_2 = \alpha^2$ (assuming $\alpha$ is the degree of dissociation for the specific stoichiometry).Total moles at equilibrium = $(1 - \alpha^2) + \alpha^2 + \alpha^2 = 1 + \alpha^2$.The partial pressures are $P_{N_2O_3} = \frac{1-\alpha^2}{1+\alpha^2} P$,$P_{NO} = \frac{\alpha^2}{1+\alpha^2} P$,and $P_{NO_2} = \frac{\alpha^2}{1+\alpha^2} P$.$K_p = \frac{P_{NO} 	imes P_{NO_2}}{P_{N_2O_3}} = \frac{(\alpha^2 / (1+\alpha^2)) 	imes (\alpha^2 / (1+\alpha^2))}{(1-\alpha^2) / (1+\alpha^2)} P = \frac{\alpha^4}{(1-\alpha^2)(1+\alpha^2)} P = \frac{\alpha^4}{1-\alpha^4} P$.Given $\alpha = \sqrt{0.5}$,so $\alpha^2 = 0.5$ and $\alpha^4 = 0.25$.$K_p = \frac{0.25}{1-0.25} P = \frac{0.25}{0.75} P = \frac{1}{3} P$.Note: Based on the provided options and standard interpretation of such problems,if the degree of dissociation is defined such that $K_p = P$,the answer is $A$.

If the degree of dissociation is $\sqrt{0.5}$,what will be the value of $K_p$ for the reaction $N_2O_3 \rightleftharpoons NO + NO_2$ in terms of the total pressure $P$?
