If we have two electrons. Now put each one of them in a separate identical box and observe their properties, and collect as much information as possible, would you have obtain an identical result?

If you do the same experiment in each of the boxes you should get the same results, within the limits of experimental error.

Does this mean that the two electrons are entangled?
Quantum uncertainty, also known as Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, is a fundamental principle in quantum mechanics that states that it is impossible to know both the exact position and momentum of a particle at the same time.
Quantum uncertainty poses a challenge to our understanding of particles because it suggests that particles do not have precise, defined properties, but instead exist in a state of probability. This challenges the traditional concept of particles having fixed properties.
Universal properties of particles refer to the fundamental characteristics and behaviors that are shared by all particles, regardless of their specific type or location. These properties include features such as mass, charge, and spin.
Universal properties of particles are observable and measurable, while quantum uncertainty suggests that certain properties of particles cannot be known with absolute certainty. Additionally, universal properties are consistent across all particles, while quantum uncertainty applies to individual particles and their behavior.
Scientists have developed mathematical models and theories, such as quantum field theory, to explain how particles can have both fixed properties and also exist in a state of uncertainty. These models help to reconcile the seemingly contradictory principles of quantum uncertainty and universal properties of particles.
