Clearly, no unit cube has more than one face painted, so the number of unit cubes with at least one face painted is equal to the number of painted unit squares.

There are 10 painted unit squares on the half of the cube shown, so there are $10 \cdot 2=20$ unit cubes with at least one face painted, thus our answer is C .
