If you are on windows you can right click on the tray icon and for the volume and open the volume mixer where you can lower the volume for specific applications, such as your browser.

But you can only change the volume of the entire browser, not specific tabs. If you're playing music in another tab, you can't just turn down one tab.
You can mute single tabs in Chrome easily:

Type this in to the address bar: chrome://flags/#enable-tab-audio-muting

Then click Enable under "Enable tab audio muting UI control."
