2133 million cycles per second is a bit slower than 2400 million cycles per second. megahertz=million cvcles per second
it is referring to the speed the parts run at. 8th generation CPU support 2400, earlier generations supported slower 2133. if the CPU calls for 2400 buy 2400. if you get slower memory it may work but you will be running the RAM either faster (166 million cycles per second faster) than it is designed and rated to run at, or you could slow the performance of the CPU because the CPU and RAM are not in sync

No, the speed stated in Intel's specs isn't a minimum, it's a maximum officially supported speed (in reality the CPUs can handle much higher speeds, but anything higher than that listed speed is technically an overclock).

Yes, that RAM will work with that CPU.
