Generally, it's difficult to see the contrast between sensor sizing only by going over specs. The visual underneath should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the K-50 and K110D.

All in all, each of the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Pentax K-50 to offer greater detail due to its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will let you crop images a little more aggressively. The more recent K-50 will have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
