Actually, none. Chocolate powder (whether cocoa powder or drinking chocolate) is not a good substitute for chocolate, because both powders have had the cocoa butter removed. Cocoa butter is a key ingredient in chocolate (it gives chocolate the melting at body temperature quality, which is pretty much the basis of chocolate) - it is a fat, so it adds moistness and enhances the crumbly texture of cakes. Since chocolate powder contains no cocoa butter, the end result (if it is used as a replacement) is that of a very dry and slightly bitter cake.
To make vanilla frosting chocolate, you typically need to add about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder for every 2 cups of frosting. Adjust the amount based on your taste preference and the desired chocolate intensity. Additionally, you may need to increase the sugar slightly to balance the bitterness of the cocoa.

Not much at all. An entire chocolate bar has about as much caffeine as a decaf cup of coffee. There's no added caffeine in hot cocoa mixes (at least for common varieties) and much less chocolate than a bar. It's probably extremely low.
To substitute for 120 grams of baking chocolate, you can use about 120 grams of unsweetened cocoa powder mixed with some fat, like butter or oil. A common ratio is to replace 1 ounce of baking chocolate with 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder plus 1 tablespoon of fat. Therefore, you would need approximately 9 tablespoons of cocoa powder and 4 tablespoons of melted butter or oil to equal 120 grams of baking chocolate.
