Don't substitute bouillon cubes for chicken stock in cooking, you won't like the results. Chicken stock is made by cooking roasted chicken bones, sometimes in broth, and reducing until there is a flavorful base which is often used for gravies, soup stock and the like. Bouillon cubes on the other hand are intensely salty and the chicken flavor in them is often artificially derived (and it tastes like it, too). There's really no comparison.
Use canned broth if you have to, or commercially produced stock, there are even some reduced soup bases you can buy at places like Smart and Final if you have to, but don't use bouillon instead. The taste is wrong, and its way too salty.

Yes. The only difference is the way the broth is simmered. When making broth you use the whole chicken whereas stock you use the bone. The only time it would make a difference is when you are using it to degalze a pan. Unlike broth, stock will bind with the dripping to create a sauce.

Diff between good stock and bad stock?
Good question! If the stock is a light golden color, it's ok. If the stock is a dark yellow or brown, don't use. This would be if you are using turkey or chicken broth. If you are working with beef stock, a tan color is ok. If it is a light brown, that's ok as well. If the beef broth is dark brown or a very oddly colored black don't use. Beef broth is darker then turkey or chicken stock.
