capacity
How much fits
Capacity is the amount something can hold or contain: the capacity of a fuel tank, a stadium's seating capacity.
Extended, it means ability or potential: She has the capacity for great kindness.
In a professional capacity, someone acts in their official role.
At full capacity, a system operates at maximum capability.
Capacity crowds fill every available space.
