How can water go through all 3 states of matter?
Get a block of ice from the freezer........
Put it in a saucepan and place it on the stove. What happens next? Well, logically, the ice starts to melt and soon turns into liquid water. Continue heating, and the water will eventually begin to boil, turning into "liquid "rarr" steam." If you heat it for too long, the saucepan will eventually boil dry.
What will happen to the steam eventually? Have the water molecules that make up the steam undergone TWO phase transitions?

Water can go through all three states of matter - solid, liquid, and gas - due to changes in temperature and pressure. When water is cooled below its freezing point (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit), it becomes a solid (ice). When heated above its boiling point (100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit) at standard atmospheric pressure, it turns into a gas (water vapor). At temperatures between its freezing and boiling points, water exists as a liquid. These changes in state occur because of the energy transfer between water molecules, which affects their arrangement and movement.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
