The word "its" does not require an apostrophe when indicating possession, as in "The dog chased its tail." However, "it's" with an apostrophe is a contraction for "it is" or "it has," as in "It's going to rain today." To determine whether to use the apostrophe, consider whether you mean possession (no apostrophe) or a contraction (with apostrophe).

It is not a word. It is two words: "it will". The "i" in "it" is not pronounced, and that is why there is an apostrophe there. You will quite frequently see the letter "t" with an apostrophe in front in Shakespeare, and it always means "it".
