Aldosterone.
Aldosterone is a hormone that is produced by the adrenal glands. It works primarily on kidney (renal) cells to help maintain the balance of fluids and electrolytes in our bodies. Its mainly works to control reabsorption of sodium and chloride and secretion of potassium and hydrogen. If aldosterone production is not functioning properly, there can be serious consequences to the heart, kidneys and electrolyte balance.
Short answer: In the kidney, aldosterone increases sodium retention, which increases potassium excretion, which increases H+ excretion, so aldosterone will tend to raise blood pH.Explanation:Aldosterone directly increases sodium retention in the kidney. ?Since all kidney cells have basolaterally located Na+/K+ ATPases, this will cause these exchangers to go into overdrive and dump more K+ into the cells. ?For those cells that have K+ channels, this will increase potassium excretion.Finally, certain cells in your collecting ducts have H+/K+ exchangers (either the alpha or beta intercalated cells). ?So if you have more K+ in the lumen, this will cause these exchangers to kick into overdrive and dump H+ into the lumen, which finally raises blood pH.
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) decreases the amount of sodium in your body and when ever sodium levels go down potassium levels go up (same is true for visa versa) so the amount of Potassium should increase when there is an increase in ADH.
If sodium reabsorption increases, water reabsorption increases as well.
aldosterone retains salt at the distal convoluted tubule and the water follows

Aldosterone
Sodium and potassium levels are controlled by secreting K+ and absorbing Na+. Sodium absorption by the distal tubule is mediated by the hormone aldosterone. Aldosterone increases sodium reabsorption.

When the macula densa in the distal tubules of the kidney sense a decrease in fluid volume, the renin-aldosterone system is activated. Aldosterone is the hormone responsible for sodium retention, causing water to be conserved.
Aldesterone
A steroid hormone has a side effect of having mineralcorticoid activity. Specifically, it exerts similar effects to that of aldosterone. What aldosterone does is increase the amount of sodium that's reabsorbed by your kidney. With sodium, water comes along as well, hence the water retention from a steroid hormone.
Sodium reabosorbtion increases, water follows, and ultimately blood volume is restored.

Na would decrease, K would increase
No! it doesn't. It just promotes your free water reabsorption in the distal tubules of the kidney. It increases the amount of aquaporines in the cell membrane, causing an influx of water in the medulla of the kidney. Sodium concentration of the urine will be higher because the urine is more concentrated. However, there isn't more sodium excreted.
