I've been using Open Office on my Windows 10 desk top for years. Now I have a Chrome Book. Is O O compatible with the new Chrome Book?

It is not a question of the age of the CPU, but of the type. If you have compatibility with Intel-x86 all should be fine, if you have a ARM-type CPU there is currently no native option to run LO.

As Celeron is a brand for simpler Intel chips for PC you should be able to run LibreOffice native.

Please note: As I remember there is some kind of debian-compatible sub-system with linux, wich runss this "installed" software, and you have to check where your data is actually stored.
