When I open a web page from a saved bookmark in the bookmarks toolbar it only opens in a small vertical column to the left of the home page. How do I get it to open as its own page?

Opening in the Sidebar is the default action for bookmarks that are created via a "Bookmark this Page" link or button on a website. Make sure you use the many "Bookmark this Page" methods that are in Firefox instead.

Right-click that bookmark and select Properties, then un-check the preference for Load this bookmark in the sidebar, and then click Save.

On Mac you may have to do this in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) in the Details pane at the bottom right. Click the More button to reveal this setting.
