    Google Chrome takes advantage of these properties and puts web apps and plug-ins in separate processes from the browser itself. This means that a rendering engine crash in one web app won’t affect the browser or other web apps. It means the OS can run web apps in parallel to increase their responsiveness, and it means the browser itself won’t lock up if a particular web app or plug-in stops responding. It also means we can run the rendering engine processes in a restrictive sandbox that helps limit the damage if an exploit does occur.

    Basically, each tab has one process unless the tabs are from the same domain. The renderer has a process for itself. Each plug-in will have one and so will each extension that is active.

    This is normal. Chrome and Firefox use what's known as Isolation - and store every tab, plugin, and extension in a different RAM process. This prevents one process from overwriting another. Also gives better stability - if one tab crashes the whole browser does not go down completely.

    There are a few ways to have some control.
    If you type in the address bar
    chrome://flags
    You will see the experimental features.
    Switch automatic tab discarding to Enabled -
    This automatically discards background tabs from your system memory when it is low. The tabs remain in place, but won’t load or display content until you click on them.
    Another flag that works in conjunction with this is the
    “Show Saved Copy Button.”
    The Show Saved Copy Button will appear after the browser discards a tab, asking if you want to reload a recent version of the page from the browser cache.

    Also there are other free utilities like "The Great Suspender", "OneTab", "Tab Wrangler" that allows you to gain more control. Cannot write everything here please do some reading.
