I wanted to put in a waste pipe from the kitchen sink to the existing soil pipe. Its about 3 metres away. Will this be ok?

Thanks

In principle, yes. Use a fall of 1 - 1.5º, ie 50 to 75mm over the whole length, and use a vented trap. That's one with a valve to let air in, which avoids the plug of water in the pipe "pulling" all the water out of the trap. Any more than 3m you'd use 50mm pipe.
