The sodium content of the chips will raise your bodies plasma sodium concentration causing an increase in the osmolality of the blood which is a signal for ADH(Antidiuretic hormone) to be released from the posterior pituitary gland. ADH causes the kidneys to retain water in response to the increased osmolality which the body percieves as a diminished fluid volume, it also stimulates thirst centers in the hypothalamus making you thirsty. Later you will pee all that water out due tothe actions of ANP(Atrial natriuretic peptide) being released from the right atrium of the heart as a response to increased stretching due to increased venous return.
