Yes, that memory should work:
In the unlikely event it doesn't work, it would be that a 16 GB memory chip needs to be dual ranked for the notebooks with Intel 8th gen core processors and older.
Something like this:
The 8 GB single ranked memory works fine in notebooks with the Intel 8th gen core processors.

According to the specs your laptop has an Intel® Core™ i5-8265U processor, it should be able to support up to 2 x 16 GB of DDR4-2400 CL17 memory.
You can confirm how much memory your notebook can support by running this command:
1. In the search box, search for cmd and click Run as administrator.
This will open the command prompt.
2. Once command prompt is opened, type wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx and press the enter key.
There, it will show the maximum RAM capacity your PC's motherboard can support.
The capacity is shown as Kilobytes, so you have to convert it to Gigabytes by dividing the number provided in the report by 1,048,576.
