It seems like you're discussing factors that affect the rate of chemical reactions. Let's clarify these points:
1. **Surface Area**: A greater surface area allows more reactant particles to be exposed and available for reaction. This typically leads to an increased rate of reaction because there are more sites for collisions between reactant molecules.
2. **Concentration**: Higher concentration of reactants usually increases the rate of reaction because there are more reactant particles in a given volume, leading to a higher frequency of collisions.
3. **Reaction Rate**: Faster reactions can result from higher concentrations (leading to more collisions) and an increased surface area (providing more area for collisions to occur).
However, it seems you mixed up a couple of statements; specifically, greater surface area typically correlates with faster reactions, which often leads to lower concentrations in specific contexts (when reactants are consumed quickly).
In summary:
- Greater surface area usually leads to faster reactions.
- Higher concentration generally also leads to faster reactions.
