by installing 32 bit OS you are not fully utlilising the capability of your
machine which supports 64 bit. It is about addressing capacity as you
mentioned.
bigger container can hold smaller, but reverse is not possible. The OS
manages the capacity, the capability is mentioned as 32 bit and 64 bit in
OS spec. While hardware capacity and OS capacity should match for the
optimum, other possibilities as listed out by Mehul Ved exist.

Not sure, but I think qemu can emulate 64bit guest in 32 bit host.
Nope, you just cannot run a 64 bit guest on a 32 bit host.
