Answer: This reaction will not occur, therefore it cannot be balanced.

Only certain metals reactive enough are able to replace a hydrogen on an acid. This only occurs if the metal is higher on the activity series than hydrogen. In this case Copper is not higher than Hydrogen on the activity series, thus it cannot replace the hydrogen. Meaning No Reaction.
