Faster. Beyond that it's hard to say without knowing more details about the rate equation.

What affects osmosis?
osmosis is affected by the concentration gradient the lower the concentration gradient the faster the speed of osmosis
The speed at which a reactant will change to a product is proportional to its?
molecular concentration
How are oxidizing agents dangerous?
because most of the time the oxygen in pressurized so if you puncture it the air will go out all at once and the speed of the air can hurt someone or something. <><><> Above is correct- a full oxygen tank is typically at about 2000 lbs per sq inch pressure. Also, things that burn in air can explode in oxygen- it increases the speed of combustion greatly.
Does room temperature affects concentration?
Temperature affects oxygen concentrations directly. When the temperature increases, oxygen concentration will decrease. In low temperatures, oxygen has higher concentration levels .
What do water and oxygen do to metal?
metal rusts when exposed to water and oxygen
What causes an increase of speed in a combustion reaction?
There are three things needed for combustion: heat, oxygen, and fuel. After the reaction has started, the production of heat may fuel the reaction, making it self sustaining.
What is the gas in the air that is needed for burning to occur?
Well there are three fundamentals for combustion. These form the FIRE TRIANGLE. FUEL OXYGEN IGNITION Without any one of these fire will cease to exist... ...But if you want to accelerate the speed of combustion, you can add more combustible fuel.
Why does oxygen need to be carried on a chemical rocket?
Chemical rockets must carry oxygen, an oxidizing chemical, or a propellant containing its own oxygen. This is because the concentration of oxygen in the air (even at lower altitudes) is insufficient for the rapid and complete combustion of the rocket fuel. Once a rocket reaches higher altitudes, there is even less oxygen to use. Some proposals for high-speed aircraft include a hypersonic form of "ramjet" that would force large amounts of air into intake vents to provide oxygen to the fuel. This concept, called the SCRAMJET (for supersonic combustion ramjet) is still in the experimental stages, but could provide a cheaper way to attain Earth orbit.
Define complete combustion and write a chemical equation for the complete combustion of methane gas?
Complete combustion is the reaction with oxygen of a material containing at least one of carbon and hydrogen to convert all of the carbon content of the material to carbon dioxide and all of the hydrogen content to water. For methane, CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 + 2 H2O. But minimum speed range for the CNG vehicle in driving condition should be atleast 50 km per hour for optimum oxygen ratio with methane to achieve complete combustion of CNG
Why is aviation dangerous?
Gravity, high speed and combustion.
HOW I speed my writing?
Practise
Why does the car has speed?
Because it is driven by an internal combustion engine.
The process of rapid combustion?
A combustion reaction which takes place at a high speed and with the release of a huge amount of heat and light is known as rapid combustion.
How does gum help your body?
It helps your concentration, reading speed and metabolism It helps your concentration, reading speed and metabolism by the chewing motion of the manable!!!!
What does steep gradient mean?
It means that there is a large difference in the concentration of a certain ion between two different locations. In cells the concentration gradient usually refers to the difference in concentration of ions inside of the cell compared to outside of the cell.
The chemistry of aquatic ecosystems is determined my what?
This depends on pH, temperature, oxygen concentration (TOD, BOD, COD), concentration of many impurities, radioactivity, water flow speed, biology of the water, etc.
Where does a chemical reaction occur on a candle?
When a candle burns the wax is reacting with oxygen in the air to give out heat and light.If you give the candle more oxygen then it will burn brighter ... but it will burn out more quickly.The burning of the candle (a chemical reaction) is affected by the number of oxygen molecules around it.So the speed of the chemical reaction is affected by the concentration of oxygen
