You can install a maximum of two 50 amp breakers feeding 50 amp outlets from a 125 amp main panel. Each 50 amp breaker is using half of the available amperage from the main panel.
Yes, a 100 amp main panel can have 2 separate 50 amp circuits protected by 50 amp breakers. This configuration allows for two separate circuits drawing up to 50 amps each from the main panel without overloading the panel's 100 amp capacity.

You can install up to four 50 amp single phase breakers on one phase of a three phase 200 amp panel, assuming the panel is balanced properly among the three phases. Each breaker will draw 50 amps of current, so be sure to consider the total load on the phase to prevent overloading.
It depends on the total amperage of the other circuits in the panel and the load requirements of the 50 amp outlets. As a general rule, it is recommended not to load a panel beyond 80% of its capacity, so in this case, you may be able to run one or two 50 amp outlets off a 125 amp main panel. It is best to consult with a licensed electrician to evaluate the specific situation and ensure it meets electrical code requirements.

Possibly if the kitchen does not have an electric over and electric cook-top and no eclectic water heater in the bathroom. If they are electric have an electrician evaluate what is being powered in the kitchen and the bathroom to determine if a 50 amp sub-panel is large enough. I would for sure at least go with a 60 amp sub-panel.

Install the fuse that is required for the circuit.

Without knowing the sq. ft. area of your house and what appliances you have connected and if your hot water tank is electric it is hard to make an assessment. The average household draws about 50 amps so if you are adding another 30 you will be getting close to the limit of the new panel. Ask for an estimate on the 100 amp panel and then on a 200 amp panel. The labor costs should not be much higher for the larger installation of a 200 amp panel just the materials.
In the United States, there isn't a hard limit on how many 20 amp circuits that can be run on a 50 amp supply. This is because in most cases, especially in homes, we don't load most circuits with more than an amp or 2, even when they are protected by a 20 amp breaker. From a practical perspective you probably have a limited number of slots for breakers in your service or supply panel.
The number of 50-amp 3-phase breakers that can be installed in a panel depends on the panel's capacity, which is typically rated in terms of total amperage. To determine the maximum number of breakers, divide the panel's total amperage by the individual breaker amperage rating. For example, if the panel has a total capacity of 200 amps, you can install up to four 50-amp 3-phase breakers.
Yes. Many installations have breaker totals higher that the main breaker of the panel. It is worked on a percentage basis. Not all of the breakers will be on at the same time. In a home, on a 100 amp panel the average load is 50 - 60 amps. The 100 amp main breaker is protecting the 100 amp rated panel board. If the load current goes higher that the panel board is rated at, the main breaker will trip to protect the board.
