As far as we know it would remain at #3*L#.........

Explanation:

You haven't proposed this question properly; the volume of a gas is a state function of pressure, temperature, and amount of gas.

The problem should read.........

#"A sample of gas is constrained in a piston to give a pressure of..."#

We don't know the boundary conditions of the problem, and are forced to make assumptions.
