sentence 1  

Explanation:

A pronoun is, by definition, the substitute for a name. In order for a pronoun to occur, it is necessary that the name before occurs for this pronoun to refer. In the case of sentence 1, the pronoun "it" should be referring to "backpack" or "stool" which are the possible antecedents. The problem is, the way the sentence was written does not allow us to know who the antecedent of "it" is. That is, it is not possible to know if the pronoun is referring to "backpack" or "stool".
