Answer 1

The chrome.tabs.create API has the callback function that returns an object containing the new tab details

chrome.tabs.create({"url":url},function(newTab) {
console.log(newTab.id);
});

Answer 2

ok found the solution

chrome.tabs.onCreated.addListener(function(tab){
    alert("new tab "+tab.id);
});
