Atomic number is a property of an atom (An Element) and not a chemical compound. Sodium chloride is a compound and thus it can not have any atomic number.

Atomic number is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom of an element. e.g. Carbon has six protons in its nucleus, therefore its atomic number is six. However, sodium chloride has two different elements as its constituents and therefore one can not determine its atomic number.
