Check your head gaskets first.

Could be block, leaking water pump, leaking heater core or leaking heater hoses.

Yes. When the engine can't cool down the block may crack.

Yes, the lost of water on most cars can be caused by a cracked block, a failed freeze plug, a cracked head, a warped head, or most commonly a failed head gasket.

Yep.

Where do you expect water to be in your motor? The only fluids I know of are oil and antifreeze.

Pressure test the system and look for the leak. Coolant can leak anywhere in the cooling system or in the block or head gasket.
