I'm trying to find the concentration of all the species present after a 0.10 M solution of oxalic acid is added to water. The problem is that there are two acid dissociation constants, one is 6.5x10^-2 and the other is 6.1x10^-5. Would I use one, the other, or both?

I got it, it's a polyprotic acid, thus it basically dissociates twice.

Well, I figured it out myself, so at this point, a good chemistry joke (or probably any other joke) is worth ten points.
