Two glass vessels M and N are connected by a closed valve. [Figure: Diagram showing two connected vessels M and N, separated by a valve.] M contains helium at 20°C at a pressure of 1 × 10⁵ Pa. N has been evacuated, and has three times the volume of M. In an experiment, the valve is opened and the temperature of the whole apparatus is raised to 100°C. What is the final pressure in the system?
