Concept introduction:
Generally speaking, a charged species is significantly higher in energy (and thus less stable) than its uncharged counterpart. The strength of base is characterized by the stability of its conjugate acid. More stable the conjugate acid, stronger the base and vice versa. The stability of conjugate acid in the solvent, depends on the intermolecular forces between the solvent molecule and conjugate acid. Stronger the intermolecular forces, more stable is the conjugate acid and stronger will be the base. Weaker the intermolecular forces, least stable is the conjugate acid and weaker will be the base.
