Will this offset the high sodium in the food?

No. Sodium in the body will absorb more water. That is why if you have heart problems, the doctor tells you to go on a low sodium diet, especially if you have swelling feet.
But to offset high sodium you just have to lay off the sodium food period.

not really...the best way to avoid high sodium is to just not eat a high sodium meal

Yes, sodium is water soluble, so it will simply get flushed out, but i would recommend it too often

high sodium makes you retain more water so if you drink more water you will have a lot of water weight.

Yes drinking water does help you to lose weight. I drank 2 Lt's of water last week per day and I lost 3lbs in weight in one week.

you need so much water for so much sodium that you eat, so water will help.
if you don't drink enough, then thats not good
