I am really confused about the rate law. From my understanding, the rate law gives an equation that tells us the rate of the disappearance of the reactants. So, for example, the rate law of the reaction $\ce{2 NO + O2 -> 2 NO2}$ is as follows
$$\text{rate of disappearance of reactants} = k \, [\ce{NO}]^2 [\ce{O2}]$$
My biggest confusion stems from the fact that the rate law gives one uniform rate for the disappearance of all the reactants, which makes no sense to me. For every $\ce{O2}$ used, two $\ce{NO}$ are used, so how can they be disappearing at the same rate?
Hopefully, it makes sense where I am coming from, and I would appreciate any help trying to clarify this for me.
