Is 110g of cocoa powder the same as 110g of all-purpose flour?

No. 110g of cocoa powder is 1¼ cups, while 110g of all-purpose flour is ⅞ cup. Same weight on the scale, different volume in the cup, because the two have different densities.

Weighing is more accurate, especially in baking, because it removes the variation in how the cocoa powder is packed into the cup. If you have no scale, use the cup figure above and keep your measuring method consistent across the whole recipe.
