It depends on your jurisdiction. I'm assuming you're an American, but as far as I'm aware the laws on emancipation still depend on state. I'd consult with a legal professional in your jurisdiction for advice. First find out if your state allows emancipation. Then look up the law for your state and see what the requirements are. You will have to file the appropriate paperwork as defined in the statute and appear before the judge with your parents. Typically you must show that you can support yourself without any help from your parents.

If a 16 year old is emancipated is she able to date over the age of 18?
Do you mean that if a 16 year old is emancipated can she date a 18 year old? I suppose she can, but you have to realize that emancipation is much more than dating. To be emancipated means you are responsible for your living expenses, and how you live. You have to pay for yourself and are responsible for your actions. Your parents no longer have to take care of you.
