I’m a complete novice to music and am learning piano, I just bought some stickers with the notes and letters for my keys but the black keys have 2 notes and letters, do they make a different sound when you hit them higher up vs lower on the key?

It is like the english words to, too, and two. They all sound the same but mean different things. A C# would be the major 3rd of an A major chord. A Db would be the sus 4 of an Ab sus chord. FYI all the white keys on a piano can also be called by a sharp or flat name. Even double sharps and double flats. It is all to keep the spelling correct in music notation. C# and Db sound the same but are notated differently depending on the context.
