All purpose flour is like our plain flour. Baking soda is like our bicarb of soda, not like our baking powder which also tends to have cream of tartar and starch in it too.

All purpose flour is plain flour
Baking Soda is Bicarbonate of soda

Cup measurements are quite variable, several different versions in different countries, but if everything is in cups then it will stay in proportion whatever size you use. The cup measurement I use though is about teacup size.
