General :: Command To Run Program When Package Doesn't Match Binary?

I have a weird/stupid question. How do you know what command would start an application after installing it, if the synaptic package name doesn't match?

For example google chrome and lmsensors. The first appears as Chrome in Synaptic and the second as lmsensors, but to run them you have to type google-chrome for the first and sensors for the second in the console to start them.
When I did locate sensors or locate chrome/chromium, nothing came up in the search that would hint me that I need to run those commands. I had to rely on a google search and look for someone else's answer. Is there a better way, one that I can figure it out on my own?
