Why Can't Barium Be Electroplated onto Copper?

[matthew77ask]

I saw an exam question that ask the students to explain the process of electoplate barium onto a piece of copper rod

Can some body help me to explain why is it not possible?

I am not sure it is not possible in general, for sure it is not possible in water solution.
