(1) 证明:根据题意,设$A(x_1,y_1),B(x_2,y_2),$代入$y=\frac{k}{x},$得$x_1· y_1=x_2· y_2=k,$
$\therefore S_{△ AOM}=\frac{1}{2}x_1· y_1=\frac{k}{2},$$S_{△ BON}=\frac{1}{2}x_2· y_2=\frac{k}{2},$
$\therefore S_{△ AOM}=S_{△ BON}。$
(2) 解:由题意,得$2m=2n=k,$即$m=n=\frac{k}{2},$$\therefore A(2,\frac{k}{2}),B(\frac{k}{2},2)。$
过点$A$作$AE⊥ x$轴于点$E,$过点$B$作$BF⊥ x$轴于点$F。$
$\because S_{△ AOB}+S_{△ BOF}=S_{\mathrm{梯形}AEFB}+S_{△ AOE},$由
(1)易得$S_{△ BOF}=S_{△ AOE},$
$\therefore S_{△ AOB}=S_{\mathrm{梯形}AEFB}=\frac{1}{2}·(2+\frac{k}{2})·(\frac{k}{2}-2)=16,$
解得$k=12$或$k=-12$(不合题意,舍去)。
$\therefore k=12。$
