Suppose E/F is a field extension. We ask whether or not there exists an
element of E whose characteristic polynomial has one or more zero coefficients
in specified positions. We show that the answer is frequently ``no''. We also
prove similar results for division algebras and show that the universal
division algebra of degree n does not have an element of trace 0 and norm 1.
