solvedose_ph

<code>solvedose_ph</code> calculates the required amount of a chemical to dose based on a target pH and existing water quality.
The function takes an object of class "water" created by <code>define_water</code>, and user-specified chemical and target pH
and returns a numeric value for the required dose in mg/L.
<code>solvedose_ph</code> uses <code>uniroot</code> on <code>chemdose_ph</code> to match the required dose for the requested pH target.

Provides multiple water chemistry-based models and published empirical models in one standard format.
Functions can be chained together to model a complete treatment process and are designed to work in a 'tidyverse' workflow.
Models are primarily based on these sources:
Benjamin, M. M. (2002, ISBN:147862308X),
Crittenden, J. C., Trussell, R., Hand, D., Howe, J. K., & Tchobanoglous, G., Borchardt, J. H. (2012, ISBN:9781118131473),
