When I was using three windows in Chromium and two windows in Firefox my system suddenly hung while I was switching between them.
In Windows I used to open task manager and close a specific window which was stuck.
How to do this in Ubuntu?

Hit CTRL+ALT+F1 and you will get into a login terminal.
Enter your login details.
Enter sudo ps -A - this lists all processes running on the computer.
Write down the process ID - PID of the stuck process.
Enter sudo kill PID where PID is the process ID of your stuck process.
Hit CTRL+ALT+F7 to resume the graphic mode.
In case the graphic mode is stuck enter in the CTRL+ALT+F1 screen sudo service lightdm restart.
