would 2x 512mb ram be faster than 1x 1gb ram and leave the other slot empty?

YEs, theoretically due to dual channel, but you won't see much of a difference

Only diff would be 2x512 would give you 1 GB, 2 x 1GB would give you 2 GB.

It may also depend on the FSB of the CPU. And what DDR ram youre using (233/333, or DDR400).
