What is sounds like you are referring to is your search engine, not your internet browser. Firefox is simply the program that you use to load websites. A search engine is the website that you use to search with.

Google Chrome is an internet browser, like Firefox, but Google is also a search engine that can be used in most internet browsers because it's just a website. In fact, Google is the default search engine for Firefox because it's by far the most common one.

If you want to change your search engine, please see Change your default search settings in Firefox. If you want to remove the Google search engine entirely from Firefox, see Add or remove a search engine in Firefox.

Hope this helps.
