there is more than one product, but I'm assuming you are talking about the carbon dioxide gas that is formed (the bubbles)

you can use a splint (small piece of wood) test to determine if carbon dioxide has been produced: placing a lit splint into carbon dioxide gas will cause the flame to go out

Read the label.
