copper can have many oxidation numbers because it is a transition elements ..
Copper can have a +1 or a +2 charge. However, since the word equation is copper(II) bromide that means you need to use the copper 2+ bromide has a 1- charge in orger to balance the charges you need 2 bromides for each copper that way there is a 2+ and a 2- CuBr2
