With the latest google chrome version the binary is named google-chrome-stable and because of this brackets is unable to open google chrome because it tries to open google-chrome when it really should be opening google-chrome-stable.
Is there a way to change it brackets?
Install Chromium from the official repository, edit the google-chrome-stable PKGBUILD to change the executable name, or just create a symbolic link for now.
This is currently being worked on: https://trello.com/c/MYaUdJOR
Currently the only way is to re-compile brackets and change the list of possible chrome executable names. There is no way to configure it elsewhere.
Since this doesn't happen for us on Windows or OSX, we assume that this is pretty isolated to (Arch) Linux. From https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/go/google-chrome/PKGBUILD I can't see that the executable gets renamed. Can you tell me if you are using the same Chrome version on your machine?
I had the same problem and solved it by creating a symlink as mentioned by @SushiDude.
ln -s /usr/bin/google-chrome-stable /usr/bin/google-chrome
