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

The correct phrase is "I sat on the chair. One of its legs was damaged." The possessive pronoun "its" does not require an apostrophe, so "it's" is incorrect in this context.

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

This phrase is correct. "Its" is the possessive form of "it" and does not require an apostrophe.

Use "its" as the possessive form of "it" to indicate that something belongs to or is associated with the chair in this case.

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

This phrase is incorrect. "It's" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has" and should not be used as a possessive pronoun.

Avoid using "it's" as a possessive pronoun. Instead, use "its" to show possession or association.
