Check out NFPA 45 Table 9.1.1(b).  This will give you a fire hazard class based 
on quantities of flammable and combustible liquids.  Then if you look in 
chapter 6 (6.1.1.1) it will tell you whether it is OH1 or OH2.

I know the MN Fire Code for instance says “Chemistry Labs” are OH2 but it makes 
sense to me that it would depend on the type and quantities of combustible 
liquids.
