Since, your absorbance cannot be found on the calibration curve, it should be more than 4.00e-5 or the same.(This data should be determined by extending the calibration graph) Let's assume that the concentration at 1.884 absorbance is 7.00e-5 M. (for making further calculations)

For the extracted solution, we can calculate the concentration of curcumin after dilution by M1V1=M2V2;

for the second sample, where dilution is made , (7.00e-5)*1 ml = M2 * 2 ml

hence, M2 = 3.50e-5.

Average concentration of original extracted solution would be, 3.50 * 10-5 M.

Since we know , that

C= (m/V )(1 / MW)

m= C* V * MW

m = 3.50e-5 * 5e3 * 368.4

milligrams of curcumin extracted =0.064 mg of curcumin

Mass percentage of curcumin = (0.064 mg / 59 mg ) * 100 = 0.001 % ( This could be different depending upon the concentration of curcumin from the calibration graph, which is not specified beyond 1.60 )

I hope the method helps! However, please check the values of the calibration graph to ensure the correct amount of extracted curcumin. If this helped, please rate it.
