It would be useful to know how you installed Google Chrome. If you
have installed it from the deb file, google-chrome should be the
executable.

A lot of Debian folk use Chromium, that is already packaged in Debian,
and is the free (open-source) version of Chrome. You might also want
to give that a shot.
