Water, of course ! Water is the liquid that doesn't mix well with oil.
If you want liquids that mix well, milk and water is a good mixture. Some muffin or waffle recipes use a mix of milk and water. Liquids that don't mix well are oil and water. The oil will sit on top of the water. In baking, you sometimes mix milk and oil or milk and lemon juice, and they don't mix well.

Yes,slightly.
Oil is a lipid and lipids are hydrophobic (meaning they do not like water). Oil will "clump" together because it is trying not to mix with water. This is why you need an emulsifier like mustard to coat the oil so that it will mix with the vinegar. Once the oil is coated with mustard the oil droplet becomes less hydrophobic because the mustard surrounding it is hydrophillic (meaning it likes water).
No we cannot mix water with oil.

Oil will not mix with water.
By separating funnel, pour the mixture of mustard oil and water into the separating funnel. Mustard oil being lighter than water floats on top. The stopcock is opened and water is allowed to separate out. The principle is that immiscible liquid separates out in layers depending upon the densities.
