(B) The reaction is $A_{2(g)} ightleftharpoons 2A_{(g)}$.First, calculate the standard Gibbs free energy change for the reaction: $\Delta_r G^{\circ} = 2 	imes \Delta G_f^{\circ}(A) - \Delta G_f^{\circ}(A_2) = 2 	imes (-50.832) - (-100.00) = -101.664 + 100.00 = -1.664 \ kJ \ mol^{-1} = -1664 \ J \ mol^{-1}$.Using the relation $\Delta_r G^{\circ} = -RT \ln K_p$:$-1664 = -8.3 	imes 300 	imes \ln K_p$$\ln K_p = \frac{1664}{2490} \approx 0.668 \approx 0.693$ (using the provided $\ln 2 = 0.693$ approximation).Thus, $K_p = 2$.For the dissociation $A_2 ightleftharpoons 2A$, if $\alpha$ is the degree of dissociation, $K_p = \frac{4\alpha^2 P}{(1-\alpha^2)}$.Given $P = 1 \ bar$, $2 = \frac{4\alpha^2}{1-\alpha^2} \implies 2 - 2\alpha^2 = 4\alpha^2 \implies 6\alpha^2 = 2 \implies \alpha^2 = \frac{1}{3} = 0.3333$.$\alpha = (33.33 	imes 10^{-2})^{1/2}$.Comparing with $(x 	imes 10^{-2})^{1/2}$, we get $x = 33$.
