Say u wanna go to google.com

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}

public void onOpenWebBrowser(View v)
{
    Intent webPageIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
    webPageIntent.setData(Uri.parse("https://www.google.co.in/"));

    try {
              startActivity(webPageIntent);
    } catch (ActivityNotFoundException ex) {

    }
}

}

Make sure u add uses internet permission to the manifest!

You would need to set up an OnClickListener and tie it to your button. In the Listener's onClick method, you would load the specified URL into the WebView, which, based on your comments, it sounds like you've got that part figured out.
