Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N. This shortcut now opens a Tab with the home page instead of duplicating the web page I'm on.
Chosen solution
Ctrl+N should open a new window with the home page. If you want to open the presently viewed tab in a new tab without using an extension then you can use Alt+D and Alt+Enter (keep Alt pressed and press the D and Enter key)

Firefox has always opened new tabs in a blank page, so I'm guessing that the way you had it before was added by an extension.
If you to to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions, are there any extensions disabled?
In any case, you can still do this with a mouse shortcut. Hold down the Ctrl key as you drag a tab to an empty area on the tab bar.
