The diameter of a hexagon will be any segment that joins two vertices of the hexagon and passes through its center. Since each of the angles of a hexagon is 120 degrees, than any triangle, which is formed by one side of the triangle and two radii, is an equilateral triangle, and so the lengths of radii are also 16 inches. Thus, the diameter (the sum of two radii) is 32 inches.
