Answer:

Copper(I) bromide

Step-by-step explanation:

Copper has oxidation numbers of +1 or +2

Bromide has a common charge of -1

This can be called Copper I bromide more precisely .or somewhat redudanately Copper mono bromide.

An older form of naming would be Cupous Bromide. Indicating a +1 charge on Copper. Cupric Bromide would be CuBr2 indicating a + 2 charge.
