Not really... it surely would slow it down as there is less surface area for particles to collide with.
You could increase the reaction rate by raising the temperature, adding a catalyst to lower the activation energy, or increasing the pressure in the system if it involves gases. Additionally, you may consider optimizing pH levels, stirring the reaction mixture to increase contact between reactants, or using enzymes to speed up the reaction.
Things that could speed up a chemical reaction include, temperature, nature of the reactants, catalysts, surface area, and concentration. Which of these may apply to your experiment will almost always vary depending on the type of experiment.
To increase the pressure that a block exerts on the table, you can either increase the weight of the block, which raises the force applied to the surface, or reduce the area of contact between the block and the table. Pressure is defined as force divided by area (P = F/A), so increasing the force or decreasing the area will result in higher pressure. For example, using a sharper or narrower base for the block will concentrate the force over a smaller area, thereby increasing pressure.
Increasing the temperature of the solution can accelerate the reaction between limescale and descaler. Additionally, agitation or stirring the solution can help to expose more surface area of the limescale to the descaler, thereby speeding up the reaction process. Using a more concentrated descaler solution can also help speed up the reaction.
To increase the magnification of a refracting telescope without decreasing its light-gathering power, you can use a longer focal length eyepiece. This allows for higher magnification while maintaining the same aperture size, which ensures that the telescope continues to gather light effectively. Additionally, you could also employ a focal extender or a Barlow lens, which increases magnification without affecting the aperture's ability to collect light.
You can increase the solubility of a solute by heating the solvent, stirring the solution, decreasing the particle size of the solute, or increasing the surface area of the solute. Additionally, you can also change the polarity of the solvent to match that of the solute for better solubility.
Increase the temperature to provide more kinetic energy for the reactant molecules to collide. Increase the concentration of reactants to increase the frequency of collisions. Use a catalyst to lower the activation energy barrier for the reaction. Increase the surface area of solid reactants by grinding them into smaller particles. Increase the pressure for reactions involving gaseous reactants to reduce the volume and increase collisions.

A common method is to add a catalyst.
The pH of the solution could change during an enzymatic reaction. It could either increase or decrease depending on the specific reaction and the components involved.

Decreasing the temperature of the system
The rate of reaction of lithium with water increases over time because as the reaction proceeds, more lithium surfaces become exposed to water, leading to more collisions and interaction between the lithium and water molecules. This increased surface area allows for a higher rate of reaction to occur as the reaction progresses.
To increase the force necessary to move the block of wood in diagram 1, you could increase the weight of the block, increase the friction between the surface and the block, or add an incline to the surface to make it harder to push the block.
Generally, if you increase a reagent and there is no increase in the reaction, then it is limited by the amount of another reagent present. For example, a mole of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate will react with a mole of Acetic Acid. However, doubling the Acetic acid will not result in a greater reaction because it is limited by the amount of Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate present.
Le Chatelier's principle states that when a system at equilibrium is disturbed, it will shift to counteract the disturbance. By manipulating reaction conditions such as temperature, pressure, or concentration, one can favor the formation of products, thereby increasing the yield of the reaction. This is achieved by shifting the equilibrium towards the side of the reaction that results in increased product formation.
You could increase the air pressure inside a bag by decreasing the volume of the bag, adding more air molecules to the bag, or increasing the temperature of the air molecules inside the bag.
