6.40g of a compound was burned in air and produced 8.80g of CO2 and 7.20g of H2O. Find the Empirical formula of the compound
How do you find the moles of Oxygen when I know that the mass is 3.2? Do I just divide by 16?

If you divid all mass of elements by relative mass number, you will find the scale of the number of all elements. Simplify the scale and you can get empirical formula.
