In an aerosol can, the contents are mixed with a gas under pressure high enough

to render the gas into a liquid. When the nozzle is opened, however, this reduces
the pressure suddenly, allowing the gas to expand. As it does so, it forces its way
out of the nozzle, carrying the contents with it. The same effect occurs when a
pressurized soda can is opened, allowing pressurized carbon dioxide to form
bubbles in the beverage.
Drawing blood with a syringe uses Boyle's law in a different way. When the
plunger of the syringe is pulled back, it increases the volume of the chamber
inside the syringe. This reduces the pressure, creating a vacuum effect. This
draws blood into the chamber through the needle.
Divers must keep Boyle's law in mind at all times. When a diver descends, the
pressure around him increases. This forces nitrogen into solution inside his
bloodstream. If he ascends too rapidly, the dissolved nitrogen expands suddenly,
forming bubbles. This causes the painful and potentially life-threatening
condition known as the bends, and only returning to a pressurized environment
can reverse it.
