Is their a way a bill in the senate can be passed with only 50 votes?
I am assuming you mean if the 100 members of the Senate were to vote 50 in favor of a bill and 50 against it. In that case, it would be the responsibility of the President of the Senate, who is the Vice President of the United States, to cast the tie breaking vote. Assuming the Vice President voted in favor of the bill, it would pass. By the way, the only time the Vice President is allowed to vote is to break ties.
Is the senate more formal when considering a bill than the house?
It depends what you mean by formal. There are many more formal rules governing House procedure than Senate procedure, mainly due to the higher number of people in the House and the relative seniority and respect that the Senate has. That being said, the formality of the bill discussion relies mainly on who's involved with the bill and to what the bill pertains. The House is usually more formal about everyday bills like OSHA regulations or tariff rates, but bring in an issue like federal funding of abortion and there will probably be some shouting and name-calling in the House as well as the Senate.
