You can also look at your anomalous maps. For most energies/wavelengths used to collect protein data, f" for K will be just under 2x the f" for S while for Na f" will be much less (0.2-0.25 of S). So you can use S atom anomalous as an internal reference. If you see anomalous peaks at your S atoms, then you would also expect peaks at
K atoms but not at Na atoms.

Quoting Eleanor Dodson <0000176a9d5ebad7-dmarc-requ...@jiscmail.ac.uk>:

Is that the right way round? Atomic no K 19,  Na 11

Call something K when it should be NA - B factor will shoot to reduce the
atom contribution.
Call something Na when it should be K - B factor will become very small..

As you say - check which fits best with the surrounding atoms..

Hello, K will always have a higher B-factor for a given piece of density
due to it having a larger atomic number. Is the K B-factor much higher than
those of neighbouring atoms and, if not, it's probably the best
interpretation? Cheers, Jon.C.

Dear Community,
                        Can you tell me. if we fit some metal in X-ray
structure and its geometry and other properties are satisfied but showing
some higher B-factor. does it validate to put that metal-ligand.ligand. At
one site 2 metals such as K and NA fit, but K shows a higher B-factor, but
other parameters such as geometry and other fit better for K instead of NA.
So, out of the two ligands at the same site which one would be more
favorable to be fit.
