Water occurs in different states: Ice, liquid, vapor and as supercritical fluid. To reach the supercritical state, water has to go through the so-called "supercritical point". At this point:
options:
the compressibility of liquid and vapor phase are equal.
there is no longer any interaction between single water molecules.
ice, liquid and vapor phase are co-existing.
water loses its polar moment and becomes a non-polar solvent.
