Step 1

A reaction is said to be in equilibrium if the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the backward reaction.

Step 2

The value of pKa is inversely proportional to the strength of an acid. Weaker acid has a high value of pKa. The equilibrium favors the formation of the weak acid.
