Is there some rule against ending a sentence with the contraction “it's”?

Why is it that the following sounds incorrect:

"Would she know where it's?"

But this sounds fine:

"Would she know where it is?"

Because you don't contract away a stressed syllable. It's counter to the very nature of contraction.
