To kill a process in linux the command is
kill -9 <process-id>
EG: kill -9 3085
the above command will kill the process id 3085
But, to kill a particular process you have to know its process id..
use the following command to find the process
ps -aux | grep <processname>
for example to find the firefox process use
ps -aux | grep firefox
this will diaplay some processid's kill those id's using kill
