I don't know what data you have to use, so ill assume you have the height of a side (H) and the length of one of the hexagon sides (L)

Assuming the hexagons are regular:

Area of a hexagon = ((3*sqrt(3))/2)*L^2
Area of each rectangular face = H*L

Surface area of hexagonal prism = 2*HexagonArea + 6*RectangleArea

Volume of Hexagonal Prism = HexagonArea*H

Hope this helps..
