can something exist in more than one “state” at the same time without changing composition? Ie can a single drop of water technically be a solid, gas and liquid at the same time?

Question

Further to that, can something exist in 4 states (solid, liquid, gas, plasma)?

Check out super critical fluids. I’m not entirely sure I’m smart enough to answer, but watching matter Flux between vapor and liquid is pretty nifty if you are interested at all.
