Ubuntu 13.04 and other derivatives required a package called libudev0 in order to install Google Chrome on it. So, at the first attempt, I got the following error after trying to install Google Chrome package on my Ubuntu 13.04
Unpacking google-chrome-stable (from google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of google-chrome-stable:

If you have the same error, you will need to download and install libudev0 on Ubuntu 13.04. Download from the following link:
Now, still in Terminal I use the command below
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/119461136/libudev0_175-0ubuntu13_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libudev0_175-0ubuntu13_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
Now Google Chrome works on my Ubuntu 13.04
