No.

That's no.

Heat controls the rate of reaction, but a catalyst is defined as a *chemical agent* (element/ compound) that alters the rate of reaction.

No, temperature is not a catalyst. A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process, while temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a system. Temperature can affect the rate of a reaction by influencing the frequency of collisions between reactant molecules.

Yes. heat might either increase or decrease the activity of the catalyst, depending on the catalyst and the nature of the reaction under consideration.
