If you are talking about Lubricating Oil. The majority of it will be will be a base oil which will be either a mineral or synthetic. There will then be additives which are chemicals which improve the performance of the oil in some way. There are literally hundreds of options for these but common ones are
Anti wear
extreme pressure
Rust and Corrosion inhibitors
Viscosity improvers
Anti Foam
Demulsifiers
etc..
If you are thinking about Grease these are also made from a base oil and have various additives depending on application but they also contain thickeners and soaps.
Hope this helps

Depends on the lubricant. Each has its own set of properties.
A lubricant is used for temperature regulation and as a barrier from friction and overheating.
It can be used as a lubricant, in case your body doesn't produce enough lubricant (or you are too impatient to wait for the natural lubricant).
No, water is not lubricant. for example:- if water is spread on ground then we slip then people thinks that water is lubricant but is not the case so the floor is smooth the water is not lubricant. oil and grease are lubricant and they are used in machines.
Whoever told me that WD-40 was a lubricant was wrong. Oil is a better lubricant than grease, in most applications.
