No, your CPU resources should not be that high, even with just two browsers open and two tabs in each browser. Kernel Task is the operating system, so it is normal for it to use some CPU resources. However, 700+ CPU usage for Kernel Task is very high.

You know whats weird, it happens when I open chrome.
I should say, it's the worst when Chrome is open

Yeah chrome is a pretty intense program. It’s better off using safari (or brave which uses google chrome extensions if that’s your thing)
