What Is the Relationship between ‘Block Size’ and the Maximum Number of Smart Contract Operations?

Block size (or more accurately, block gas limit) sets the maximum amount of computational work (gas) that can be included in a single block. Since every smart contract operation consumes a certain amount of gas, the block gas limit directly dictates the maximum number of operations and transactions that can be processed in that block.

A higher gas limit allows for more complex or numerous smart contract interactions.
