The equilibrium constant (Kp) for the reaction (g) (g) + (g) is 16. If the volume of the container is reduced to one half its original volume, the value of Kp for the reaction at the same temperature

Question

The equilibrium constant (Kp) for the reaction $PCl_5$(g) $PCl_3$(g) + $Cl_2$(g) is 16. If the volume of the container is reduced to one half its original volume, the value of Kp for the reaction at the same temperature will be
