plus que or plus de

I'm confused when to use 'plus que' versus 'plus de'

From the text we see 'est plus que compensé par' and then 'pendant plus de quelques secondes'.

How do you know which to use?

How can I know that "Bordeaux" is feminine?

From the spelling I imagine it should be masculine.

English translation of "une ovation publique".I wonder about the colloquial English translation of "une ovation publique". " A public ovation" is not a phrase which I have ever seen used, and for which I can't find an example on the internet. "Ovation" in English is almost universally used as a "standing ovation" for which the French appears to be "une ovation debout".

About the explanation of "on"Hi guys! I find the page of Kwiziq very interesting. You explain " people shouldn't speak with their mouths full" : " on ne doit pas parler la bouche pleine" . Why is there not "avec" between " parler" et "la"? It doesn't seem like correct french grammar? Are there any misspelling here?Thanks a lot.
