Here is a link to one source that provides some generalities:

Please keep in mind that there are exceptions to any rule, and it is best to simply learn the proper article with word- and also remember a good number of words that end in "a" are masculine (especially Greek origin words that end in -ma, -pa, -ta) and that there are some words that end in "o" that are feminine (la mano being the classic example).

Also remember that feminine words that begin with an initial stressed "a" sound (such as agua) take the masculine article in the singular even though they otherwise behave in a feminine manner.
