}

Apex: 
public class AccountUpdate {
    public static void updateAccount(list<Account> acList){
        try{
            for(Account acObj:acList){
                if(acObj.BillingStreet!=null){
                    acObj.ShippingStreet = acObj.BillingStreet;
                } 
                if(acObj.BillingCity!=null){
                    acObj.ShippingCity=    acObj.BillingCity;
                }
                if(acObj.BillingCountry!=null){
                    acObj.ShippingCountry= acObj.BillingCountry;
                }
                if(acObj.BillingState!=null){
