when you buy "baking stevia" it should come with a conversion chart, but i think its probably pretty universal. this is how mine goes: 1 cup sugar = 1/4 cup stevia 1/2 cup sugar = 1/8 cup stevia 1/3 cup sugar = 1 tablespoon and 1.5 teaspoons stevia 1/4 cup sugar = 1 tablespoon stevia
It could be used depending on what you are baking. A better substitute would be Stevia.

This can be difficult, as most potential "space holders" can contain a significant amount of moisture, affecting your liquid measures, or they can dry out your product, creating small, sawdust-like crumbs.
No. two totally different things that do totally different things
