Where does the comma go with the word which?
The comma goes before the word "which" when it begins a non-restrictive adjective clause (can be omitted as it does not change the basic meaning of the sentence). A non-restrictive adjective clause is extraneous information about the noun it modifies.Example: I will be serving turkey for dinner, which is my favorite food. "...which is my favorite food" can be omitted and not change the meaning of the sentence.

Which kinds of punctuation are used to set off nonresident clauses?
Use commas to set off nonrestrictive elements. Do not use commas to set off restrictive elements. A restrictive element defines or limits the meaning of the word it modifies and is therefore essential to the meaning of the sentence.
What is the difference between 'that is why' and ' which is why eg ' You can never know what will happen on a journey ' commo here''that is why' or 'which is why' you should have a travel insurance?
There is a subtle but important difference between the use of that and which in a sentence, and it has to do primarily with relevance. Grammarians often use the terms "restrictive" and "non-restrictive" when it comes to relative clauses. A relative clause provides additional information about the noun it describes, but it may be considered relevant or irrelevant to the overall point of the sentence. In other words, a restrictive relative clause, which often begins with that, is usually considered essential or restrictive. Relative clauses beginning with which may contain non-essential information and would be considered non-restrictive.Or simply: Use which when it introduces a new clause in the same sentence. Use that when it begins a new sentence. Thus we say "You never know, which is why..." and we say "You never know. That is why..."

What is the adjective clause pronoun that CAN NOT be used in non restricted adjective clauses?
"That". In a non-restrictive adjective clause, such as in the sentence: "He went to the Eiffel Tower, which is located in Paris." The non-restrictive adjective clause, "which is located in Paris", called non-restrictive because it does not serve to improve the identification of the Eiffel Tower or "restrict" the meaning of it, contains the adjective clause pronoun "which". The reader would know what the Eiffel Tower was referring to even without the adjective clause because there is only one Eiffel Tower. This is what makes the adjective clause non-restrictive - not improving the identification of the noun. One could not use "that" in place of "which" because "that" is only used to alter or restrict the meaning of the noun. Here is an example of a restrictive adjective clause using "that": "I went to the store that is on the corner of Sunset and Vine." In this sentence the adjective clause, "that is on the corner of Sunset and Vine", restricts which store we are referring to, to the one "that is on the corner of Sunset and Vine" and not the one on Main and Third Streets. Thus it is called a restrictive clause. In restrictive clauses, one can use "that" and any of the other adjective clause pronouns: who, whom, which, where, when.
Do you use a comma before or after which?
Not necessarily. Commas are a feature of sentence structure. There is no word or phrase in English that requires one. When the word which begins a clause it may have a comma before it. A comma would go after which only for a parenthesis.Normal: The movie which was shown later was better ( than the one shown earlier).With a new clause: The movie, which was shown later, was better than the play.And with parenthesis: The movie which, as I have already said, was better than the play
