Most laptop CPU's are soldered to the motherboard these days so unless you know your is not assume its a no go. Then you have cooling and power requirements, the cooler or power circuit may not be able to handle a higher wattage cpu. Even if your laptop model had a version with the i7 its likely the i7 version had at least a better cooler and possibly better power delivery.
Bottom line is laptops are rarely made for cpu upgrades. Even if you can where are you going to buy a mobile cpu from?

assuming you have the Core i5 4210H look at intel's site for socket and tdp and look for a processor with same socket and in the range of the tdp higher tdp would most likely result in higher temps or constant throttling so i would stay at about the same
your socket is
FCBGA1364
tdp 47
