However you got the 5 mA to flow (vs. the 2.5 mA) if the voltage stayed
the
same, (and I realize it wouldn't, probably):  P = IxE so the power would
theoretically double.
The particle size would almost certainly be in a different range.

No, guess I should before commenting, but I suspect there would be a
cubic
effect, due to dissipation into volume, as well as a square law effect
due to
area of electrode.
