No. a i5 6500 is compatible with a z170 and z270 motherboard.

you want a i5 8400 with that motherboard which is a HEXAcore cpu whereas the i5 6500 is a quad core cpu.

No. The 3xx series motherboards are only compatible with the 8th generation processors, Coffee Lake.

No it does not. What do you mean you couldn't find the answer to this anywhere? For future reference pretty much every motherboard has a CPU support list on the manufacturers website. Z370 boards only support coffee lake 8th gen CPU's.
