According to The Wakanda Files guidebook, Whiplash Mark 1 is stated to have an arc reactor half as effective as Tony Stark's first miniature arc reactor (3 GJ/sec), with stats on the page directly stating that Whiplash Mark 1 has an energy output of 1.49 GJ/sec (0.3561185468451243 tons, 8-C) according to benchmark evaluation tests. This would also indicate that Iron Man Mark 5 evidently traded a lot of power and durability in order to be more compact, given the struggle it had against Whiplash, and should warrant a separate key from Marks 2-4 scaling to this number.
EDIT: The movie itself shows the maximum output of the arc reactor according to Iron Man's HUD is 1.82 GJ/sec (0.4349904397705545 tons, 8-C), which is a little higher.
EDIT 2: The Art of Iron Man 2 also has a statement from Jon Favreau describing Iron Man Mark 5 as being not as strong compared to other suits:
