Yes,baking powder reacts with the liquid in the batter and the heat of cooking to make the cupcakes rise during cooking. If you don't use baking powder, your cakes will be short and dense, like a hockey puck so i would use it.

Cake flour is much finer. Sometimes it is combined with baking powder, so you have to check the box on the brand you buy because you won't need to add the baking powder in the recipe if the brand contains it. Cake flour gives a much lighter texture. If you need to substitute all purpose flour for cake flour, then use 1 cup minus 2 Tbsp. of all purpose flour for every cup of cake flour called for in the recipe.
