"My word it does.............."

Explanation:

We don't even have to consider the mole, we could consider another number, i.e. consider a single isolated "nitrous oxide" molecule, N_2O. Clearly, in this isolated molecule, there are two nitrogen atoms, and the one oxygen atom.

And what are the numbers of each atom in NO_2, another common molecule?

Remember that the mole is another number, admittedly a very large number, N_A=6.022xx10^23*mol^-1.
