I take it you mean the surface of the cuboid of those dimensions.
A quick sketch on paper, as you can't create it in a simple text editor, helps in cases like this.
Taking the 2 x 2 faces first, their total area = 2 x (2 x 2) = 8 cm^2
Now the 2 x 1 faces: 4 x ( 2 X 1) = 8cm^2.
So total surface area of the cuboid = 8 + 8 = 16 square centimetres.

Which has a greater surface area a cube that is 2cm times 2cm on a side or eight cubes that are each 1cm times 1cm on a side?
Eight little cubes.
What is the total volume of 1Cm x 2Cm x 2Cm?
If the shape is a cuboid, then the volume is 4 cubic centimetres.
What is the surface area of a cylinder whose radius is 2Cm and height is 8Cm?
A cylinder whose radius is 2cm and height is 8cm has a total surface area of approximately 125.66cm2 {ADDED} To explain that further, the formula is pi*r^2 X h where r is the radius and h the height.
What is the area of a rectangular box 2by4by1 cm?
Volume of a cuboid = widthxlengthxheight; therefore V = 2cm x 4cm x 1cm = 8cm3
What is a shape that is 8cm long 2cm wide and 1cm high?
It is a rectangle.
