Given:

The dimensions of a square prism are 2 centimeters by 2 centimeters by

12 centimeters.

We will find the surface area of the prism

The surface area = The area of the bases + the lateral area

The lateral area = The perimeter of the base * height

The lateral area =


4*2*12=96\text{ cm^^b2}

So, the surface area =


2*2*2+96=104\text{ }cm²

So, the answer will be option J. 104 cm²
