kinetics - Rate and order of a reaction


The rate of reaction can be measured from a concentration vs time graph of a particular reactant in a reaction.


But, if in your reaction you have different reactants of different orders surely they will each give a different concentration vs time graph and so different rate at any time t. This implies that the rate of reaction can have multiple values depending on which reactant you follow.
