In French, the choice between "il" (masculine) and "elle" (feminine) as pronouns meaning "it" is determined by the grammatical gender of the noun (object) they refer to. For example, "le livre" (masculine) would use "il", and "la table" (feminine) would use "elle". The "informal/formal" distinction is more relevant for subject pronouns like "tu" (informal) vs. "vous" (formal) when addressing people, not for the "it" - like usage of "il/elle".
