here is an example of my confusion. you'll notice the notes close confined in one line and more spaced open on another. Question: is there something I should know about that 'equalize 'this?
MuseScore normally tries to fit as much music per line as it can, according to the settings you have made for staff size in Layout / Page Settings and for the general spacing in Style / General / Measure. The defaultsa are consistent with established norms in published music. Sticking with the defaults normally yields good results most of the time, but if the last line of the piece ends up having too few measures, they will either be spaced out to fill the width of the page (resulting in wide note spacing) or else they won't (resulting in blank space to the right of the last measure). You can control whether or not MuseScore tries to "right justify" that last line by changing the threshold in Style / General / Page. In this particular case, maybe increasing that threshold - so MuseScore sees your last line as not full enough to be worth stretching - might be the way to go. Or maybe you would rather add a line break somewhere in the previous line to force MsueScore to put fewer measures on it, yierling more balance between the two lines. Or you could increase the note spacing in the dialog I mentioned. MuseScore gives you lots of different ways of presenting your score, but first step is deciding how you want it to look.

I deleted my comment after the OP modified the initial post in a way that my reply didn't make any sense anymore
