I sat on a chair. One of its legs was damaged vs I sat on a chair. One of it's legs was damaged

The correct phrase is 'i sat on a chair. one of its legs was damaged'. The incorrect phrase 'i sat on a chair. one of it's legs was damaged' contains a mistake with the use of 'it's', which is a contraction for 'it is' or 'it has', instead of 'its', which is the possessive form of 'it'.

I sat on a chair. One of its legs was damaged

This phrase is correct. 'Its' is the possessive form of 'it', indicating that the legs belong to the chair.

Use 'its' when indicating possession by 'it'. In this case, 'its' shows that the legs belong to the chair being referred to.

I sat on a chair. One of it's legs was damaged

This phrase is incorrect. 'It's' is a contraction for 'it is' or 'it has', not the possessive form of 'it'.
