I'm not sure I understand what you are saying summerkc. I don't think oxygen is just hanging out behind your skin. It would have to permeate the lungs and everything else. And that is only if you don't assume that it is still bonded into other mixtures with cohesion and adhesion. And how is it leaving on a nuclear level? Its nucleus? Surely not. It will still be at least an atom. Actually two since oxygen is a ditomic.
As for liquid boiling, it doesn't take a high ambient temperature at all, the drop in pressure itself would boil it. Just like a diver getting the Bends, a dramatic decrease in pressure will evacuate all of the gases that have previously be dissolved into water. Like taking the cap off of a bottle of soda.
