To find the surface area of a cube with a side length (\(s\)) of 10 cm, we can use the formula:

\[ \text{Surface Area} = 6s^2 \]

Substituting \(s = 10\) into the formula:

\[ \text{Surface Area} = 6(10^2) = 6(100) = 600 \text{ cm}^2 \]

Therefore, the surface area of the cube is \(600 \text{ cm}^2\).
