Detailed Solution

Side of each small square = 1 cm

∴ Area of each small square = 1 cm2

The two-dimensional net of the cube encloses exactly 6 small squares.

Therefore, the area of the net is 6 square centimeters.

The total surface area of the cube is equal to the area of the net.

Hence, the total surface area of the cube is 6 cm2.
