I'm not to clear on the Dex bonus myself, but armor check penalty is when you don your armor. Meaning how long it takes you to put on and take off your armor. Arcane spell failure applies to all magic users, since armor restricts your movements, you can't cast a spell as successfully. The % is just the possibility of you failing to cast a spell.
