Synonyms of "Price" and their differences
Q:
What is the difference between We will set the price at arm's length. and We will determine the price at arm's length. ?
A:
If you 'set' the price, you are actually changing it to a certain value.
If you 'determine' a price, you are evaluating what the price should be, but you are not necessarily changing it.
Based on our production costs, we determined the price should be $100. However, we set the price at $80 to be more competitive.
When you keep something "at arm's length" you are avoiding it, or keeping a distance between you and it. I'm not really sure what you are intending by using it here.

Q:
What is the difference between What is the price? and How much is the price? ?
A:
"What is the price?" is correct.
"How much is it?" is correct, and the most common way to say it.
Naming the item specifically, like, "How much is the car?" is correct.
You could even simply ask, "How much?" and be understood.
"How much is the price" feels wrong to me. It isn't the price that is "how much," it's the item. The price is how much the item is. Like you wouldn't say, "How tall is the height?" you'd say, "How tall is the girl?" or "how tall is the building?" or just "how tall is it?"
