Answer:

$from \: the \: equation : \\ 1 \: mole \: of \: methane \: is \: produced \: by \: 2 \: moles \: of \: hydrogen \\ 8.7 \: moles \: of \: methane \: will \: produce \: (8.7 * 2) \: moles \\ = 17.4 \: moles \\ 1 \: mole \: of \: methane \: weighs \: 16 \: g \\ 17.4 \: moles \: will \: weigh \: (17.4 * 16) \: g \\ = 278.4 \: g$
