Depends ... are you logging in with it?

There's all manner of things that it will do.

1) try to see if there's a real internet connection 2) check if it's the latest version 3) log in with your google account 4) sync passwords 5) update shared history 6) update chrome apps

I've probably missed some things out, but that's what I can think of, off the top of my head.
