God chose immersion in water because it is a very powerful way of showing us that our sins must be forgiven. Believers realise that they need saving from sin and require God's grace. They go under the water in baptism, and die to an old way of life. They come up out of the water to a new life. In baptism, believers identify with the death of Jesus Christ, who died for us.
Baptism removes all sin (even the original sin committed by Adam and eve).

What are the three parts of confirmation?

What is the part of a mass where they have a baptism?
It depends upon the Parish pastor, or the Bishop. It certainly would not interrupt the Liturgy of the Eucharist or the Liturgy of the Word, but rather come between the two, after the mass is done, or before anything starts. Note: Baptisms often times are not even celebrated in masses; they don't have to be. If you are referring to when during the Easter vigil mass the baptism takes place for RCIA candidates, I've been to many of these and it seems pretty clear this happens after the Liturgy of the Word and before the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
