Precise stylists maintain a distinction between that and which: that is used as a relative pronoun in restrictive clauses and which in nonrestrictive clauses. In the book that is on the tabular array is mine, the clause that is on the table is used to distinguish one detail book (the one on the table) from some other or others (which may exist anywhere, simply not on the tabular array). In the book, which is on the tabular array, is mine, the which clause is merely descriptive or incidental. The more than formal the level of language, the more of import it is to preserve the distinction between the 2 relative pronouns; just in informal or colloquial usage, the words are often used interchangeably
