where it is vs where is it

Both "where it is" and "where is it" are correct, but they are used in different contexts. "Where is it" is the more common and natural way to ask about the location of something. On the other hand, "where it is" is used to emphasize the location of something in a sentence or to refer to a specific location previously mentioned.
