Answer 1

We use "that" for essential clauses and "which" for nonessential clauses. An essential clause gives important information about a noun that we need to know, while a nonessential clause adds extra details but isn’t necessary to understand the sentence. For example, in “The book that I read was exciting,” "that I read" tells us exactly which book. In “The book, which I read last week, was exciting,” "which I read last week" just adds extra information about the book but isn't needed to know which book we're talking about.

Answer 2

1 sentence

Answer 3

We use "that" for important details we need to know about something, and "which" for extra information that isn't necessary, like in “The cat that is sleeping is mine” versus “The cat, which is sleeping, is mine.”
